Banshee DELETED my MP3 Downloads from Amazon

> I'm using 9.10 with the most recent packages (as of a couple days).

To save us having to look up the package versions available when you posted this bug, can you please post them here, including the output of uname -srm and the version of Banshee you are using. Please also attach the output of lsusb when the phone is attached.

I note that Banshee 1.5.2 was released on November 20, 2009 and made available in the Banshee Team PPA at https://edge.launchpad.net/~banshee-team/+archive/ppa on December 17, 2009. The "Other Enhancements" section of the release notes at http://banshee-project.org/download/archives/1.5.2/ include the following statement:

* Improve recognition of Android devices

I originally had banshee 1.5.1-1 installed. Per your suggestion, I installed the PPA version, which is
1.5.4~really1.5.2-0ubuntu1~hyper1~karmic. I have been unable to reproduce the problem with the latter version of banshee. Here is the other info you requested.
