I gradually switched (since Jan 2011) to consulting part-time (I'm down to 2 days in a week) at my previous employer and I've got one product (http://apps.shopify.com/fliptabify) that makes a decent amount of money (enough to survive* but not yet comfortable) and I'm working on a few more.
Currently doing everything myself. Lucky to have a few friends I can bounce off ideas with.
Edit: * To add more context, I'm married and have a 17 month old daughter.
thanks, I'll take a look. I want to try and replace my freelance work with passive income products. I was thinking of ThemeForest to start but I might try this.

I didn't realise shopify had an app market. Is it big enough to make decent money? Does shopify take a cut of your subscription income?
It's big enough for me to make decent money and growing all the time. If you use Shopify's billing system they take 20%.
I've written the popular PHP client adapter for the Shopify API (http://wiki.shopify.com/Making_A_Shopify_App#.E2.80.9CI.E2.8...). If you need any help with getting started with Shopify, feel free to get in touch with me.
