What timing you have!.. Just 2 days prior to you posting this I was searching on the net for a service similiar to this! I'm trying to set up a friend's bookstore database and was trying to create a script that will automatically import the upc on the back of the book which would automatically populate the database with pertanent info on the paticular book. ie. description, author.
Yet I am without luck in this mission,.. If you could please tell me of any info developing on behalf of this post... Please.. please.. tell me! Otherwise I'm gonna have to parse thru amazon.com and that is unstable and possibly illegal!..... Don't make me break the law! hahaha

I set up a mySQL database much like you mentioned. I am not all that great wiuth perl and would really appreciate if you open source me a copy of the parsing code that extracts author, description, en carta from the amazon.com website.
