I don't have an answer for that. All I do know is that an awful lot of indie books do appear for free on Amazon, so clearly Amazon are happy that somehow it fits their business model and there must be a way to do it. I think the benefit for Amazon is that it attracts a different kind of audience who might also buy books in the same visit.
