Again I will ask a question that went unanswered.

Well before radiohead did a pay what you want album. Stephen King did the same with a book. Nobody can really question if he does or does not sell copies. Also just like the music business the quality authors end up paying for all the failures, they also primary live off of whatever advances they get and if lucky a small percentage after a large benchmark number. Unlike music stores, book companies buy back unsold shit.

It did not work for him, so why?
Can not say there was not any buyers who would buy his stuff. Can not say he could not get the press. Perhaps he did not do enough book signing tours to um well...
