Amazon links update (still in beta, but works ok)

*** UPDATE - just to be clear, these links are available to all users to try.  I am just keeping this in beta because it is still a little rough around the edges.  The only thing I see changing at this point would be more links types added, and better accuracy in the results. ***

A few new links - Here is a list of all amazon links you can add to your tweet:

  • %amazon_album - link to the album’s mp3s on amazon
  • %amazon_uk_album - link to the album’s mp3s on amazon uk
  • %amazon_track - link to the track’s mp3 on amazon
  • %amazon_uk_track - link to the track’s mp3 on amazon uk
  • %amazon_album_or_track - First tries to get the album, if it can’t find it, gets the track.
  • %amazon_uk_album_or_track - First tries to get the album, if it can’t find it, gets the track. (uk)

I recommend using the last 2 links, as they have the best chance of generating a good link to amazon.  US and UK are the only amazon stores that support the mp3 search, so thats all I support for now.  If you want a different country, let me know and if I get enough interest, I’ll see what I can do.  (Like link to the CD, but does anyone buy CDs anymore?)
