Good morning.  I am able to purchase from Amazon MP3 but unfortunately WE does 
not handle the purchase on click.  I have to use NVDA for this task.  Once the 
purchase goes through it is necessary to find the "no thanks" link for the 
cloud player app.  In any case all your purchases go to cloud player so if 
their web interface ever works with screen readers you'll be able to redownload 
anything you've bought.  I was pleasantly surprised to find out that the cloud 
player app for the Iphone works really well.  Too bad the PC version is as bad 
as it is.

  Subject: Amazon Cloud Player Downloading Issue


  Have any of you successfully bought MP3 albums from Amazon.com and gotten 
them downloaded to your PC?  I had been able to purchase albums from their MP3 
store and have them automatically downloaded to my PC; but lately, something 
either in a WE update or at Amazon has gone damnably wrong!  For one thing, I 
had a radio button checked to automatically download my purchases to my 
computer, and I had one-click purchase enabled.  That worked very nicely for 
several months.  Now, I find that that darned checkbox to automatically 
download purchases does not stay on RELIABLY.

  When an album I recently purchased did not automatically download to my PC, I 
attempted to manually download it from the cloud player; but I have had nothing 
but trouble, and I still do not have the album I bought.  I also found that 
even though the Download control says "link", pressing ENTER won't operate it.  
I have applied GWKB1127 to my Firefox so that the mouse functions should work 
reliably; but even when I find the Download control, route the mouse pointer to 
it, and do the left-click button on the numeric keypad, the download still does 
not occur.  I have even tried to click the left button on the real mouse, 
holding it very carefully so that it did not move away from where I had it 
routed, but the download still does not occur.

  I am about ready to contact Amazon, request a refund for the album which I 
cannot get, and "wash my hands" of them as far as their MP3 purchase function 
is concerned.  Ideally, it should be possible for me to purchase an MP3 album 
and have it download to me automatically immediately upon my purchase; and it 
would if that darned checkbox could be checked AND LOCKED so that it would stay 
put!

  Have any of you reecently been able to download MP3 albums from Amazon?  I 
have Windows XP, the latest version of WE, and both IE8 and probably the newest 
version of Firefox.

  If I decide to say "goodbye" to Amazon, do any of you know of a good 
accessible website to LEGALLY purchase MP3 albums and which works effectively 
with WE?  I do not want to obtain albums from any site which does not sell MP3 
albums on a totally legal basis.
