As far as I know, there is nothing out there that provides this service anymore. Amazon is basically being the dog in the manager over this. They don't want to make the effort, but they don't want anyone else to access their database to do it.
There must be more to it than that, we've just only heard one side of the story.
eReaderIQ seems to running along just fine using Amazon data to provide a different service.
