It's too late to add a poll to this thread, but... how many believe that a micropayment system, say, 5 cents for a book, would create such an increased level of sales that it would ultimately bring in more to the author (sales increase by a few hundred to a thousandfold) than a $3-4 book price? Could that create a living wage for an average author? Could it overcome the initial obscurity of an average author?
