Amazon is the one pushing it. It will eventually hurt them. My ebay listings have tax added for TN residents. In the 15+ years I've been on there I've probably sold 1 thing through there to someone in my state and it's because of the tax. Who wants to pay for shipping + a tax. And then when your local tax authority comes by he/she's going to want you to pay a use tax on it again. Their business now is distribution. Since they are working with large companies with a presence in every state they have to charge tax. The small mom and pop shop that only has a presence in one state doesn't so it's competition. Competition they view as unfair.
