The independent-publishing phenomenon is still in its infancy, and I think that there will eventually be some sort of shakeout that will make it easier to distinguish the good from the bad. I'm not sure what form this might take, and I think matters will get worse before they get better, but even "free" is too much to pay when you have to invest hours of your own time in reading utter dross.
