Nope. Overall, it's a 10% decrease in revenue. 18 people bought in the
Amazon Market instead of Android Market, and I get paid less.

I can't prove that Amazon sales are cannibalizing Market sales, but I
suspect so. Very few people buy when the prices are exactly the
same.

Nope. If I reduce my price on Android Market, Amazon can discount that
price by 50% too. It's a race to the bottom.

And I'm not going there. I do not believe I can more than double sales
by slashing price in half. There are already similar apps available at
half the price in the Market, and they are selling half as much, not
twice as much.

Everyone feel free to tell me how little I know about marketing.
