New version of the Brad Sucks Digital Download Store, most of these changes are thanks to Scott Andrew who's using the DDS on his new store. Changes:

= fixed: specifies product ids must be number in items.ini
= fixed: noted PAYPAL_EMAIL must be your sandbox business email

Very handy additions. You can grab it here.
