I'm currently working on a little tool called mamz or "my/maemo/meego Amazon Downloader".

scroll down for updates

It's exactly what the name suggests, a quite simple graphical Download utility for the AmazonMP3-Store created for maemo/meego.
For me it's more or less a little tool for learning how to program in Qt and refreshing my C++ knowledge, so don't expect anything to fancy.

But i think it might be useful to some of you - when its done.
At the moment all it does is open, debase64 and decrypt an amz-File purchased from Amazons Store and download the MP3s associated with it to a hardcoded directory.

Whatever, here's a little overview:

Currently working:
* Open,decrypt and parse AMZ-File
* Download tracks to specified(hardcoded) directory
* Display progress in Qt

Current Limitations:
* no real support for digital booklets

Enough talking, here's a screenshot:
MainView: the Tracklist

unfortunately my scratchbox VM currently has no internet connectivity and I don't have a current build on my phone, so only placeholder images for covers are displayed.

Oh, btw. here's the garage-page:

Update 16.02.: here is another shot of mamz, this time running on an n900 and downloading some free tracks, as you can see the progress bars don't display correctly and the progress value on the right side has some issues

Update 11.04.: alpha0.2 has been released in packaged form, changes include:
* support for custom naming scheme
* support for custom download directory
* local amazon stores
* fancy background image ;-P
