Installing Clamz :

Download the AMZ file.
When you downloads MP3 files from Amazon either using the Amazon Cloud Player or anything else, it gets downloaded in AMZ format which contains link to those files. Since those files cannot be used directly on the browser, we will pass this to Clamz which will parse and find the links to download it using the correct method which Amazon will accept. Though I have seen this working on my iPad and I was able to bookmark it to listen again later.
