Download File Packages Results

I've now had enough experience with the marketing idea of practically giving away high resolution files of popular images in packs. For other photographers who would like to try this, or for anyone that's interested in how G+ has worked out as a platform for selling files (as opposed to actual prints) here's what the results have been so far: 1.
