That's very true. However, it's also true that word processors and cheap computers have made it easier for serious writers to more easily create more and better fiction. So there's a flip side to everything.
It's like television. Right now, because there's a million channels, there's more crap than ever before. There's also a lot more good stuff. Personally, I think the crap just sinks -- nobody notices it. It just fades away. So the worry about all the slush is really not an issue.
