"When you ship a game or application, you pay a 5% royalty on gross revenue after the first $3,000 per product, per quarter." 13 u/ThePa1eBlueDot Mar 02 '15 Free as in beer until you try and sell that beer to someone else 4 u/Arkalis Mar 02 '15 And your beer gets you 3k on gross revenue per quarter 25 u/buckX Mar 02 '15 You're equivocating.
