04/19/07 01:05 PM snook: It would be a worthwhile project, but I believe it would be skewed by inaccurate data. |
04/18/07 10:58 PM veingloy: All it would take is someone collecting the figures from authors--something I do for romance ebooks. |
04/18/07 04:52 PM snook: I don't think that will ever happen. |
04/18/07 04:09 PM Heff: With POD book originating from so many places and sold in every way imaginable, I doubt that any accurate total sales figures exist. |
04/18/07 12:24 PM AJessop: I think that something like this would really benefit POD authors. |
04/18/07 12:22 PM AJessop: I emailed this same question to POD Critic: Are you aware of any organization that may be currently keeping tabs on the “actual” sales of POD works? |
