I agree with this. I personally don't feel like just because something is free it's going to be poor quality, at least not with books. Same thing, just because something is expensive, that doesn't mean it's good. If I like one book by an author, I'll buy them all, assuming they are reasonably priced. I think offering only one book free is a good idea. I also think it would be a good idea for many indie/unpublished authors to make friends with an English student who is willing to proofread their work for free.
