For some reason, I thought I had installed version 0.8. Now I realize my stupid machine did version 0.7!! Thanks for the "b" tip! — Nostalg.io, Oct 15 '14 at 00:49

The error happens because the "b" in "EmailBackend" should not be a capital.

From Oscar Documentation (Wrong):

'oscar.apps.customer.auth_backends.EmailBackend',

SHOULD BE:

'oscar.apps.customer.auth_backends.Emailbackend',

It was mentioned above, but not very clearly. Hope this helps others who stumble upon this :)
