> The best way to make money is to sell digital copies via leanpub/gumroad, as these sellers pay 80-90% royalty. Amazon will only pay you 30% if you price your book over $9.99, which let's be honest, most technical books will be. Hmm... it seems to me that it would be better to have it in every marketplace. If someone's looking for a book on Amazon, you'll lose the sale entirely. 30% is better than 0%, yes? While I may follow a link to gumroad or whatever from a blog post or something, I never go there if I'm just looking for a book on my own initiative. It's always Amazon. If your book isn't on Amazon, I likely won't even see it. Yes, that probably means I'm lazy. But I suspect I'm not the only one.
