I am happy to announce the 0.9 release of Pymazon.

http://code.google.com/p/pymazon/

Pymazon is a Python implemented downloader for the Amazon MP3 store.

This release is a near-full rewrite which brings a brand new GUI design and a host of new features:

Notably:
- Pymazon now supports MP3 downloads which contain digital booklets and video attachments.
- The GUI now has a settings dialog. No more having to manually edit the .pymazonrc file
- An improved command line downloader interface.
- A much much cleaner code-base. I wasn't happy with Pymazon the first time around, hence the rewrite.
- Some convenience functionalities to mimic the official Amazon downloader.

Pymazon can run on PyQt4, PyGtk, and the command line.

This release is serving as the beta before the 1.0 release.
I have done a fair bit of testing on this release, show it should be pretty stable.
However, please report any bugs so I can fix them and tag the official 1.0 version.

Aside from google code, Pymazon is also available in the cheese shop.

Cheers :guitar:

Hi
i thought I had successfully installed Pymazon but when I tried to call it up I got this.


bryan@Bydand:~$ pymazon
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/bin/pymazon", line 67, in <module>
main()
File "/usr/local/bin/pymazon", line 41, in main
main(amzs)
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/pymazon/qt/ui.py", line 259, in main
win = MainWindow(amzs)
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/pymazon/qt/ui.py", line 118, in __init__
loadFileIcon = QIcon.fromTheme('document-new', QIcon(QPixmap(load_icon_path)))
AttributeError: type object 'QIcon' has no attribute 'fromTheme'
bryan@Bydand:~$I can post a copy of what I did in the terminal to install it if that will help.

Thanks for any help.
Bryan
