I've received the first proof copy of the IngramSpark printing. 
Comparing it to the CreateSpace printing:

- It is virtually impossible to tell that the two books are printed by 
two separate printers. The quality is the same.

- The bindings are almost the same: CreateSpace's glue is translucent, 
IngramSpark's glue is white. Bothe are very good.

- IngramSpark's paper is thinner (eyeballing: about 15-20% thinner); so 
it is more see through.

More importantly, I can say that my first experimentation with the 
format change has failed: When the margins are too narrow, the book 
looks very amateurish. I am going back to more comfortable formatting.
