I'm curious how comparable some of that data is. Specifically, Audible may pay half what a bookstore does per sale, but are they also charging less than half of what the same bookstore charges. Such that you really need to compare revenue generated for the artists, not just margin per sale. That said, I am in favor of trying market forces to see what sort of change one can make. I... question anything out of the publishing world, though. If Audible is a good company doing bad things, most publishing houses are likely to be at best described in the same way. And, spotify is a hilariously cursed example to use as a "for the artists" system.
