Of course, I don't actually know what the arrangements are between fictionwise and its distributors. But I'd be surprised if fictionwise has agreed to pay distributors for files it never receives.
FW doesn't receive the file at all. The download link on the bookshelf is direct to the distributor's server; it's not a link to FW. FW is not involved in the process of file downloads in any way - other than by providing the download link.
