WTF MP3!?!?!

[1quickturbosix]

So I tried purchasing an MP3 from Amazon and it downloaded fine and I put it in my "my music" folder. But it wont show up in my native Sense MP3 player. When I go in and explore the folder I see it and it will let me open it with windows media player, but it wont show up in the native sense player. Anyone else have this problem?

Also, what does everyone use for purchasing MP3's? Amazon says I need some MP3 downloader software otherwise it wont let me purchase the music? What gives?

The native Sense player has a "Purchases" section. The most far right tab I believe. Try checking there.

Yea, I just tried purchasing a song from there (its amazon), and it makes you download a .amz file and that starts your download. Unfortunatley the broswer doesnt do anything once you download it. DUMB!

What exact folder does it put the music in? It could be that it places the newly downloaded song in the program files folder for the amazon download app, which is hidden from the sense music player indexing (all of the program files folder is that way).

Well I got that part figured out, I just did one of their free songs and got everything working.

But then I actually purchased one, which downloads this .AMZ file which is suppose to initiate the download of the actual mp3 file, but it doesnt seem to do anything. When I click on it it says there is no program associated with the file.

Ok I just googled it, and the .amz file requires the desktop downloader from Amazon...I don't know that Amazon has any method to download paid songs that don't require that app or a mobile client (like android has).

Wow, I cant believe that nobody has ever used that "shop music store" function in the native player!!!!?

I get the feeling it was just never fully implemented as amazon never produced a winmo client, and I've never seen any other direct-to-device MP3 stores for winmo.
