I browsed through the free titles today and there was a lot of nothing I want to buy, even at $0.00. I'm guessing that as a promotional tool the "5 days free!" will be a non-starter -- it won't be easy for Amazon customers to find my book among all the free erotica, and if they're coming to Amazon because they know about my "5 days free!" promotion from my blog, it'll be easier for 99% of them to just download the copy free from my blog and skip the whole link-to-Amazon thing.
