If you want precedence, you should perhaps consider the fact that eBooks are charged the full rate of VAT throughout the EU, compared with the lower (or zero) rate applied to print books. The reason for it in the EU is that eBooks delivered electronically are considered to be an "eCommerce" transaction (ie the purchase of a service), rather than the purchase of physical goods, and services are not permitted to have any discounted VAT rate.
