Title:
  Can't download purchased Humble Indie Bundle with Ubuntu Software
  Center

Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  I found a simple workflow that leads to confusion and frustration for
  users purchasing software for Ubuntu:

  1) purchase the humble indie bundle from http://www.humblebundle.com/

  2) Pay online with one of the supported methods

  3) you get an email with a link which contains a key and takes you to
  the download page on humblebundle.com.

  4) click on the big "Download for Ubuntu" button to get to http
  ://software-center.ubuntu.com with the same key in the URL parameters

  5) Now click on any of the games and allow Software Center to handle
  the apt:// url.

  6) Software Center displays the correct product, but it offers you to
  buy the game once again :-(

  As a work-around, I clicked on a troubleshooting link in a second
  email I received from @canonical.com, which took me to a page with the
  details of the password-protected PPA. I manually added the PPA to my
  system, so I could finally download the package.
