Most of the time you should be paying tax... I'd rather not have the complex patchwork of laws which allow the government to nail almost anyone who annoys them for tax evasion, thanks.
No, there's just good reason to reduce the VAT rate of ebooks to the same as that for print books. No need for getting into "internet zone" at all.
