Kevin, nobody was ever hurt by a bad book (or a bad piece of music, painting, sculpture, etc.). I see no reason to get in such a lather about self-published books, whatever their quality. If your point was that most things suck, I agree but what shall we do about it? Hold a farewell party to Good Things and Good Times? I think the doctrine that things suck is very old. Nothing good has ever come out of it, to my knowledge.
Best,
mrt
