I guess the main point to me, is that Amazon is an avenue to sell this author's book. Since he is self-published, he is free to spread his product through as many channels as he can or is able to.
It seems, so far, that Amazon has been profitable. He's been exposed to more buyers than even his own website. We've already seen the success of Boyd Morrison, so maybe Amazon is a good launching pad and is worth the price to get to bigger and more profitable things.
