It's odd to me that people seem to have completely forgotten what the experience of selling your software in brick and mortar stores was like. Most of the time

Most of the time, you also had to work through a software distributor middle man (who took a cut) because the large chains wouldn't deal with you directly.
- valuearb 6y agoYea, I forgot about Ingram MicroD. They took 50%, and when it came time to get paid, “We don’t cut checks on Tuesday, only on Monday” “Oh I know what she said about cutting checks on Monday, but Sarah is out till Thursday” “Oh, Sarah is back but we only cut checks on Mondays” “I don’t know who told you we cut checks on Monday, we only do that on Friday. Sarah? Sarah doesn’t work here any more”
