Getting Away From Amazon.com

I am pretty pissed that Amazon collect and pays nearly ZERO taxes in the US (based in Luxembourg).

A few States have passed laws, but we really need Federal legislation. Besides, I HAT that fucking Amazon downloader crap-app that wants to re-install itself every time you access a download. So if you want movies, pick a retailer. If you want music, look up the band's label and check their site. A lot of the time, the music IS CHEAPER THERE THAN ON AMAZON. No shit Shirley...

A US On-Line Sales Tax Is Inevitable

It's also fair to implement one. I don't know why the Governors don't get together and all implement the same percentage tax on the same day across the country (at the point of purchase, not sale). Seems logical?

UPDATE: The UK is going after Amazon too:
