So, Collins, how much are you paying for your downloads?
I pay $0.00. Multiply that by 5% (0.00 x .05) and I get a whopping
$0.00 I owe in tax. Even if you pay a little for a music download, so
what? I haven't heard you complain about the tax when you go shopping
downtown. No big deal. Governments everywhere need their tax. Ask
Bill Gates. M$ taxes you on _every_ system you buy from an OEM like
Dell, etc., whether you buy it with M$ installed or not. Complain
about that. That at least is illegal (per-CPU licensing agreements).
