It's not the indie author trying to fight past commercial advertising because I'm not looking for something new to read in this scenario - I'm looking for a new book by Mike Stackpole - and that only works if I know who the author is and already want to read their books.

Has this not always been an issue with indie authors, though? I don't think the technological changes to the publishing world will change that. But, If anything, it will give them a slight advantage over the old system, at least. So I still think his points are valid for everyone, not just established authors.
