I'm sure there is room for error. I didn't mean it as absolute proof of anything. I just found it very interesting. One of the Kobo marketing guys did an article a while back on how right around 1 percent or less of the freebies that are downloaded are read (I can't remember the exact percentage, but it was very, very low). Maybe I can find that article.
Well, yeah -- but who do you think buy more books?

Suffice it to say, I can see a significant margin of error there...
