this guy writes some of the BEST publishing related articles love that he is discussing this Amazon used to have a sliding royalty scales going all the way up to 90% for audiobooks Then 4/5 years back they made some excuses and changed to 40% * People keep targeting Amazon for anti trust in areas like retail where it is hard to prove because Amazon keeps using defence of 'cheaper for customer' why not target them for anti trust in areas they have domination to a larger extent and where they actually do blatant anti trust which leads to higher prices for readers i.e. Audiobooks - giving creators only 40% cut instead of earlier up to 90% ebooks - forcing exclusivity. How is it not anti trust if the largest ebook company in the US (60% market share) says to self published authors - give us exclusivity and get 65% of book sales. OR don't give us exclusivity and get only 35%
