Hmm, it seems to me that discussions about the details & implementations of US 'use tax' really belong off in their own thread, as both sides will probably be able to point to specific scenarios in which their point prevails, as the legislation differs from start to state, even before you examine the details of such things as 'delivery' & 'tangible merchandise', for example, as applied to ebooks!
Meanwhile, back with the original topic, is there any sign elsewhere as to whether this is Play.com selling US Readers or an offical UK launch?
If a Play.com-specific venture, then there's going to be unhappy customers when they try & use their UK credit-cards at the SonyStore...
