Books are still considered sacred by a large segment of the population.
The tax you propose could be construed as further penalizing people without ereaders, the poor, the less technologically advanced, students and those who live in areas without interent access.
And of course it would be an excuse/incentive for publishers to raise the price of ebooks so that pbooks remain competitively priced.
Making literature less accessible in any form seems distasteful and doing it by taxation is controlling to the point of Big Brother tactics.
