I note the ASIN numbers for
Amazon's MP3 Download Service - are not recognised.

Any plans to allow this?
This would be great to allow me to add MP3 and iTunes downloads to my Listal Music collection.

That'd be tricky, seeing as how singular songs are a different field from whole albums. I think it should be implemented eventually since digital music is clobbering the competition. Some people don't even have CD cases anymore.

It would be best just to add the equivalent album instead, allowing the mp3's would cause more duplicates.

Adding individual tracks would be difficult as well but it's something that would be good in the future.

I prefer digital downloads because it allows me to purchase singles and album tracks instead of the whole album or single (a and b side) - so I want to indicate that I own an album-track not the whole album.

I appreciate the point about duplicates in terms of 6 tracks from one album giving you the same album cover 6 times but each track has its own ASIN number and it would be evident that it is the individual track that is owned not the whole album.

The future is digital - for music and film - I'm not sure that CD's and DVD's will become completely obsolete but certainly an ever-decreasing share of the market.
