Amazon Metadata search with asin not working
It looks like something has changed at amazon, I'm trying to search for metadata for my audiobook "better than life" (Red Dwarf) the regular search with title and author is not showing the audio version, and when I try to use the asin the response is that the url is malformed
****************************** Amazon.com (1, 2, 2) ******************************

ASINs are 10 characters starting with a "B".

The ASIN for the audiobook you mentioned is B00NPB5V28 not 3AB00NPB5V28.

Ok, thanks, I forced my browser to go to amazon.com and it has a different asin, I used it and it worked.
