When I first got my reader, I downloaded every free book I could, even romance. I then stopped, because I knew I was never going to read them. Growing up my mom always had them around, and from seeing them then I knew they were really not good or interesting to me.
I also noticed then that Harlequin was one of the few publishers that fully embraced ebooks. That is why you see such a flood of romance books. They publish an immense number of books, since romance novels are quick reads and a volume tactic seems to be followed by the publishers (not to mention, most authors in the genre are unknowns, so cheaper for them to produce books). Now, that in mind, it means they have a large backlist they're converting, as well as a good number of new books as well.
As far as filtering, not all sites are designed well enough to allow filtering. For instance, I often hit up free or cheap lists on the various ebook stores, and some of them flat out refuse to let you filter in those categories.
