what might be surprising to many is how little of this sum actually goes to the writer who uses a publisher for his/her books (around $3 out of $12<---i might be slightly off)). now don't shoot me, i recall reading an article somewhere (which i cannot find atm) but AFAIK most of it goes to... you guessed it, the publisher.
add to the pricing the problem of "this book is not available to your region" and it just gets frustrating (= euphemism)
