Amazon web source is completely broken

[Alcahest]

Hey all,
It seems the Amazon web source is completely broken.
I get this error whatever I try:

---------------------------
Mp3tag v2.86
---------------------------
Error connecting to server: http://webservices.amazon.com» 403: Forbidden
---------------------------
Retry   Cancel   
---------------------------

Would anyone have a solution?
Thanks in advance,

Alcahest

Amazon Web Sources

Amazon.de, amazon.co.uk and Amazon.fr are working for me. I just changed all the .co.uk in the script below to .fr and .de and saved it under different names. I hope it will keep on working for quite a while. # Mp3tag parsing for Amazon Web Service (v2.36 and higher) # # Web source created and maintained by dano # Last modified 2011-01-26 # # minor additions by Florian and Dave Reid # # Save it in your Mp3tag data directory, i.e. # C:\Documents and Settings\*username*\Applicat…

Amazon terminated my associate accounts and is no longer supported by Mp3tag.

From the changelog:

[2017-06-22]  CHG: removed Amazon tag sources after Amazon.com invalidated Mp3tag's web services account.

I don't understand why it doesn't work? Applications like Tag&Rename still interface with Amazon and it's my favourite source.

Are you working on getting the problem sorted with your invalidated .com account and have you considered a .co.uk account?
