Nobody reads these things unless they need to. Fortunately, Google
did the reading for me :-)
http://www.apple.com/legal/itunes/appstore/us/terms.html
Note the last sentence in section 15 - Sales Tax:
"No customers are eligible for tax exemptions for transactions made on
the Service."
Same phrase in overall iTunes Store T&C: http://www.apple.com/legal/itunes/us/terms.html
So we have the same sales tax problem with anything sold through
iTunes: apps, videos, songs, etc.
Apple needs to change iTunes & App Store Terms and Conditions, in
addition to other changes, to enable tax-exempt purchases.
One could argue that Federal law trumps Apple contract T&Cs. Good
luck with that. IANAL.
