Why is point-of-purchase for paper books the store you buy them from, but point-of-purchase for e-books the computer you buy them with?

E-books uploaded and add in online databases, so that, everybody can access these books either free of cost or by paying for it. E - electronic books are made only for download able purposes and for the convenience of people. You know about digital libraries, where you can have the options to read and download any article or thesis.

The same way e-books are working, their point of purchase is computers or any machine having access to internet. This is for convenience and accessibility.

It seems pretty elemantary, though I'm not an authority. That being said, I have sold a tangible good online. And that's the key, I think.

A paper book has to come from an exact location--for example, when you make some purchases online, it might say something like "Texas residents must pay 7.25% sales tax. " The sale may actually be entered into a system other than where the store is, so if an online order generates a shipment from a warehouse in California to a location within California the California resident's paying tax, even if the store's in Texas, I think. Here's a great example: ccnow.com.

Located in Minnesota, they're a credit card processor for thousands of sites--but every sale from every site takes place in Minnesota: "Taxes. With respect to Merchandise sold by CCNow to Customers pursuant to this Agreement, in states within the United States where CCNow has a legal obligation to collect sales or use taxes, CCNow will be solely responsible for the collection and remittance of any and all applicable sales or use taxes (as of the date on which You entered into this Agreement, CCNow has a legal obligation to collect sales or use taxes in Minnesota only). You will be solely responsible for the collection and payment of any and all applicable sales or use taxes imposed on Your sale or licensing of Merchandise to CCNow (or Your income derived therefrom).

The price charged to CCNow by You for Merchandise resold by CCNow to Customers located in the United States shall be inclusive of all required sales or use taxes. " Now, let's look at e-books. They're data downloads.

Ten to one if you read the terms of service you may be dealing with a Delaware corporation. "Delaware charges no income tax on corporations not operating within the state," --there's no sales tax there, either, so thousands of companies, big and small, are "Delaware corporations" whose "branch office" is what you know as the HQ, but on paper, whose main address is an attorney, accountant or a mail drop. "Sales taxes in the United States are taxes added onto the price of goods or services that are purchased in the United States.

A sales tax is a tax on consumption, which is displayed as a percentage of the sale price. Sales taxes are assessed by every state except Alaska, Delaware, Montana, " I guess there must be a lot of corporations with HQ in Montana or Alaska, too, but Delaware is the big player. They make it up with other corporate taxes, like franchise taxes.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
