So if I pay $9.99 for an ebook or paperback, I'm not gonna shell out $24.95 for the audio of the same story. Same is true vice versa, I buy many audiobook that I don't own ebook and print copies of. So I think for many people like me that take advantage of whispersync, that's just an extra perk and extra $ that you would not otherwise be getting from us.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16109970095880661776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5868853817355139125.post-15974199214700817792016-11-30T22:36:38.551+11:002016-11-30T22:36:38.551+11:00Amazon claims that Whisper sync helps the author, ...Amazon claims that Whisper sync helps the author, but as a writer I've found that it does nothing but steal our money. It is a fantastic deal for the reader and that is why they are doing it, but when we get 20% of profits and that profit is based at 1.99 think how much money that is. I am a indie writer and it drives most in my community near insanity getting a hundred dollar check at the end of the month after selling 150 audio books.mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17225526624206969435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5868853817355139125.post-69716932437996843712016-02-15T20:22:15.966+11:002016-02-15T20:22:15.966+11:00Thanks for letting me know.
