I absolutely don't work for them, don't know anyone who works for them, and have no association with them in any way. I own a bicycle shop in Canada, whereas they're an e-publishing firm in Oregon if their 503 area code is anything to go by.

And as I said in my post, Smashwords is likely better in a lot of circumstances. Bookbaby might be better if you think you're really sitting on the next Hunger Games or believe you're the next Amanda Hocking, but otherwise Smashwords' royalty model is likely better.

And Smashwords might be better in all circumstances if you take the time to do the majors by hand (Kindle, Kobo, Nook, etc.) where the biggest volume of sales are likely to be, and then use Smashwords to fill in the gaps.
