Thanks for the info. Next time I want to know what Amazon means when they sell me "MP3 Music", I will remember to go to body building forums before clicking "Buy"

Amazon does provide the MP3 files themselves.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=...

They surely make it difficult to find, though.

I used to be able to actually buy MP3s from Amazon US. I actually have bought and downloaded a few albums this way.

Then they launched Amazon Music (or whatever its name is) in my country, which only provides app-based access to music, and also took away my ability to buy MP3s from the US website and neglected to add it to my country's version of Amazon.

I tried to follow those convoluted instructions to no avail. Did it not like my Linux box? Who knows. But a company that made its fortunes making buying convenient should know better.

Your comment isn’t consistent with what you replied to. They said the discourse is better than that comment. Taking that to consulting the forums to know what Amazon means appears to not be a good faith response.
