Amazon MP3 purchasing

[darkoshi]

Buying MP3s on Amazon is such a hassle now that they no longer have the MP3 cart, and you have to purchase each item as a separate step, and with multiple payment transactions. I only buy digital music on Amazon now when I can't find it via other purchase mediums.

After buying and downloading a certain number of items, their site also ends up giving an error message about having reached the download limit (which Amazon Customer Help says is a glitch), and that I need to download any further items from my Music Library. Going through the webpage menus and links, I couldn't find any download links on the Music Library pages.

For future reference, this is the page that has the download links:

I rarely buy albums as mp3s unless it's something only available elsewhere as an mp3 such as Maggie Nicols's last album. I bought that via Bandcamp. I stick to the physical product every time.

It is nice being able to hold albums in your hands and look at them, and browse through stacks. But the convenience of downloading MP3s, and not having to find place to store all the physical media, wins for me.
