  <title>Amazon MP3 Store</title>    
  
  <p>Banshee supports downloading and importing music from the Amazon MP3 store.
   You can manually import Amazon music files, purchase music in your web 
   browser or buy music inside of Banshee.  Amazon only offers music for sale
   as an MP3 in certain countries and depending on your location, you may
   not be able to buy Amazon MP3s.  
   </p>
   
   <note style="important">
     <p>Banshee uses an Amazon affiliate code for all music purchases.  All
     money made via this affiliate code is donated to the GNOME Foundation.

  <title>Purchase Amazon MP3s in your web browser</title> 
  
  <p>Music purchased from Amazon's MP3 store can be automatically
  downloaded and imported into Banshee.  Banshee associates itself with
  the .amz file Amazon provides for MP3 purchases.  When you buy music on 
  Amazon, your web browser will download the .amz file and Banshee will
  automatically open it and begin the download and import the music.

  <p>You can also search for songs on Amazon within Banshee.  Choose the 
  Amazon MP3 Store from the Banshee menu on the left.  This will load the
  Amazon MP3 Store just as if you were in a web browser.  You can search
  Amazon for the music you wish to buy and after logging in to Amazon, buy
  music with one click.  Banshee will automatically download and import 
  your purchase into the library.

  <title>Import Amazon MP3s manually</title> 
  
  <p>When music is purchased from Amazon in a web browser, a file with the
  extension .amz is downloaded and saved to your hard drive.   To import
  music purchased manually from Amazon, in Banshee choose 
  <guiseq><gui>Media</gui> <gui>Import Media</gui></guiseq> from the menu and
  select the *.amz file to be imported.  Banshee will then open this file and
  connect to the Amazon MP3 store to begin the download.
  </p>
  
  <note style="warning">
    <p>Amazon .amz files are only active for a short time.  If you do not
    download your music quickly, the file will expire and you cannot download
    your music from Amazon.  Amazon does not publish how long files are active.
     It is recommended you download and import any purchases from Amazon within
     an hour of purchase.
