Hi Erick -
No idea what I did last night when I posted but evidently my edited version went into the air.
So I removed the "article" for now and will re-write this evening.
You are right about the numbers. Due to increases in what distributors retain, a developer is left with less in his or her pocket end of the month.
Perhaps a more appropriate area to discuss is pricing by distributor.
Talk soon, Andie
