The Difference Between Commercially Published and Self Published or Hybrid Published

I think with speaking as with all aspects of publishing, the difference between commercially published and self published or hybrid is eroding every day. It used to be a decade ago when I first published my first book, Reinventing You, it was really important to be commercially published. And now there are so many people who have chosen for a variety of reasons that they couldn't cut it with a commercial publisher. They're proactively making the choice to beself published or hybrid published because they want a faster release schedule or because they want higher royalty rates.
