Hi there,
since several weeks when trying to launch the international or the german amazon-database an error occures and the following message is shown:
"_Error while connecting to Server: [http://webservices.amazon.com](http://webservices.amazon.com)_" or
"_Error while connecting to Server: [http://webservices.amazon.de](http://webservices.amazon.de)_"
(German: "_Fehler beim Verbinden zum Server: [http://webservices.amazon.com](http://webservices.amazon.com) / de_")
I've got no clue what generates this error... no firewall, no proxys. - Any idea?
I'm relying on v2.39 because I'm still using win2000.

Amazon now only works with the latest Mp3tag version. Their API now requires a special authentication that is not supported by old versions.

Thanks for your quick reply!
Any intentions to fix that, so win2k-users can rely on the amazon-db again?
