Companies are not required to charge sales tax in states that it does not have brick and mortar operations. B&N has brick and mortar operations in, I think, all 50 US states and so must charge sales tax on internet purchases. Amazon has a brick and mortar operation in a few locations and charges sales tax in those locations.
