Which is more profitable?

http://jakonrath.blogspot.com/2009/10/kindle-numbers-traditional-publishing.html

One author's experience with selling e-books through his publisher and through his self-published kindle sales. He shares numbers--both e-books sold by title, and his income from those sales.

I wonder if his experience is similar to others'  or different?  And how many authors can make that comparison at all.

I don't know, but it would sure be interesting to find out. I doubt there's much chance of getting it down to a reasonable 10-20% consignment rate, but below 50% might be doable.
