Also, he pronounced the experiment a success in a letter he submitted to the New York Times that was never published (but he published on his own site). I'd say that, if true, $600,000 is pretty successful. And let's remember that Radio Head had a minimum payment of $1 or something like that, much different than the honor system King had. Also, back then the internet was a much different landscape than it is now. I can't help but wonder: with the profusion of blogs today, would his experiment have been more successful?

I'm doing all of this: free samples, book in serial form, slowly building an audience, experimenting with advertising. And I honestly can't think of anything to add here. Apparently the next time I come up with a new writing project I should just ask you, Kassia, what you think. You've already got a lot more answers than I do and I've been at it for 4 months. :) It’s funny.
