Article on 'Applematters', I believe indicated alot of States are jumping on music downloads for taxes. iTunes is now over 1 billion songs and they want piece of the pie. It's interesting in my State because downloaded software is not taxable but the same software purchased on CD-ROM and delivered to you is taxable.
I'm wondering if this would apply to an iTune song - after all, it is Apple's argument in their court case with the Beatles that downloaded music files are actually "digital content". I guess it could be argued that this is 'software' on that basis and therefore non-taxable for State sales tax purposes.
Any opinions?
