Sorry, I do not agree, Calvin. I download lots of software and music and free e-books that I delete after giving them a try. I certainly do not want my taxes to pay for them and there is no other way to see how they work or if I like them. For instance, how can I know how Opera or Firefox works? I download it and try it. After a few minutes, sometimes seconds, I delete them from my system and stick to IE8. The same with e-books; I download them, put them in the BeBook and after a few pages delete them. I am sure this is the regular behavior or folk. That is one of the reasons the tax system is not a good idea.
