Add files from the Amazon MP3 downloads folder to iTunes

AppleScript Applet for iTunes

Obligatory warning: This script has been designated as an obsoleted "Retro Script". There is no guarantee that it will function as described with modern versions of iTunes (or the newer Music or TV apps) and/or macOS. If used in its current form it may not work at all without modification. At worst, it may corrupt or delete data.

The Amazon MP3 Downloader application has a preference to add downloaded purchases to iTunes. But I could never get it to work. Whatever. This script will display the Album folders in your designated "Amazon MP3" downloads folder so you can select which of them to add to iTunes. Optionally, if you allow iTunes to "Copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library", you can choose to move the original folder and files out of the "Amazon MP3" download folder and to the Trash. Saves a few keystrokes. (Also see Add from eMusic Downloads Folder.)

Action shot:

Add from Amazon MP3 Folder in action

Select the Album folders in your "Amazon MP3" downloads folder to add to iTunes.
