    Why doesn't my town have AmazonLocal? :(....

    I don't even think SC is even listed on their site.

    Bought it, but only $2 appears when I click on the "promotional codes" window on Amazon.com! Where's the missing dollar?!

    FelipeRRM, I got an email alert about this; and did get the $3.00 but it showed under vouchers.
    Does anyone know if you use a voucher once it still shows up as Status ... unused?
    When I try to reuse one (such as the MArch one Cin' altered us to $5 for $10) it does not work; as expected, just wondered why the status is wrong.

    Are you both going into "your vouchers" on your Amazon Local account, "copying" your code, and then "pasting" it into here on amazon.com?

    This is what it should look like where you apply your code, and then it will show your applicable balance available:

    (Also, you have to pay special to care to voucher expiration dates. Sometimes, they expire fairly fast - usually within a 5 to 7 days. This one will expire on 7/12/12).

    If you have any q's about your codes, contact Amazon Customer Service, they are usually more than fair to deal with. : ) For this one, I think you would need to contact Amazon Local CS.

    No, I don't have an Android. I didn't know it was a 1 day thing. Thanks for clearing this up.

    Thanks for the input in step 10 Cin', Yeah I did that part correctly, but everthing I "bought" shows as already downloaded; Even though I do not have or want a cloud account, nor could I figure out how to D/L with AMAZON downloader app (could not find a version that works with Ubuntu). I did contact them but I was told there are only 2 ways to D/L but no big deal, they will never get any real money from me. ;)
    I guess I will stick with http://soundcloud.com/search?q[fulltext]=black+keys.
