From here:

Arnold keeps a percentage, which I know, but don't think I'm authorized to share, off the top of the webscriptions sales. In exchange for that, he runs the bar, runs and develops Baen's other web sites, and runs the free library stuff."" |
Thanks for info DawnFalcon. I wasn't aware that Baen had contracted with an outside company to provide their web services, however it doesn't surprise me. The article you quoted didn't say how much Arnold Bailey takes in commission but I'd be surprised if it was anywhere near a traditional retailers cut (but this conclusion is based on nothing but an educated guess).
