IPG is about to learn that one can publish an ebook without a distribution middleman taking most of the money.

(Think about the authors here. Amazon takes 30% of the money that goes to the distributor. The distributor takes 30% or more of that money. The publisher takes 30% or more of that money. And finally, a few cents are left over for the guy who wrote the book. How sorry I feel for IPG...)




Sounds like the recording industry as well!

Actually all middle-men!
