since a few days ago i can't connect to amazon anymore, i been doing some research and i can tell that is not firewall/router bloking problem (i already check that) cause i can connect to the other servers like freedb, discogs and musicbrainz so.. webservices.amazon.com is not working???
somebody with the same problem? by the way i have windows 7 and mp3tag 2.44d and i can confirm that i have the same problem with ver. 2.44 help. 
thanks in advance
This combination (actually) works for me - not really a help for you, sorry.
Got an even worse problem:
2.44 and 2.44d no connection to amazon, discogs, and musicbrains. Only freedb works.....
even with fully disabled xp firewall - no luck....
no other firewall active
I´m online via hspda/hsupa umts - modem at 7.2 Mbit/s
Any idea?
I have the same problem here, I'm using 2.44 and no connection to amazon,discogs and musicbrainz.
I'm using Windows XP and with Windows 7 I had the same problem.
SOLVED (at least for me)...
The problem was caused by the internal image caching mechanism of my hspda/hsupa umts provider. I had to lower the compression value at the access software which came with my umts modem to make it work again.
