New Owners of Smashwords: Draft 2 Digital

Smashwords, the company that managed my self-publication business, decided a couple of years ago, to sell the business to snitch company,  Draft2Digiral.  I had never heard of this company, and I was suspicious of this plan, wondering what downsides there would be. 

My Stories on Smashwords were, many of them, free to download on Smashwords.  But now, I am informed that I no longer have control over the prices of the stories; D2D sets the price.  This is a serious disadvantage, and I don't know what to do about it. 

There are two obvious things I can do:

  1. Delete my books from D2D, and try to put them up on some server, for anyone to download. 
  2. Try to sell them on the Amazon, or some other agency. 
I don't have the energy to look up how to do either of these things, and I don't know what to do.
