I'd like to follow the lobbying money trail on this and see if it leads back to someone like Intuit who is now going to be peddling their "one stop shop" service for this, for only a 1% service charge on the sale amount.

Maybe states will pick up the cost of the tax rate info aggregation. The FAQ from TaxCloud is pretty interesting:

Also note that they say they rely on Amazon EC2.
