I think this article from a reviewer pretty much says it all - When I bought your book, I didn't sign up to be your beta reader. I would be annoyed to download a book, even a free one, and find out it was only a rough draft.

I would just keep doing what your doing - distributing the book via dropbox or via your website - and try to get the word out. I wouldn't publish it to Kindle.
