Support for iTunes afilliate LinkShare URLs

[LunkRat]

This may be implemented already, but I don't see a way to return URLs that have iTunes affiliate tracking from LinkShare. For example:

http://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/stat?id=3x5NRUJ3dAk&offerid=146261&type=3&subid=0&tmpid=1826&RD_PARM1=http%253A%252F%252Fitunes.apple.com%252Fus%252Fartist%252Fprimus%252Fid105588%253Fuo%253D4%2526partnerId%253D30

If anyone has done this, please share. Thanks!

I found the answer to this issue here: http://www.leancrew.com/all-this/2012/01/apple-affiliate-links-via-textexpander/
and here: http://www.leancrew.com/all-this/2012/01/simpler-apple-affiliate-linking/

Perhaps this can be integrated into python-itunes using the code linked above? You could set your own partner ID and site ID variables at the beginning of your script and then python-itunes would return all URLs with your unique tracking code?

Hi,

Ok. I will implement this whenever I have some spare time. It seems pretty simple.

I'm planning to do it this way:

So you'd be able to generate a link like this one: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/notesy-for-dropbox/

Thanks for the feedback!

I've been trying to do this as well, but for the life of me CANNOT get the store to change from US to GB! Anyone point me in the right direction?
