Amazon MP3 downloader for Linux

Since today Amazon has opened its DRM free music store for German users.

Amazon seems to have a heart for Linux users. Have I missed something or is Amazon really the first MP3 music store that offers popular music from the biggest music labels that is DRM free and also accessible to Linux users at the same time?

There are binaries of the Amazon downloader available for  Ubuntu 8.10, Debian 4, Fedora 9 and OpenSUSE 11.0. You can try it with the first free song download: This Much is True from Amy MacDonald.

Oh BTW: This is not an Aprils Fool joke. In case you are disappointed, watch this.
