Given that the cost of ink and paper is about 10% of the cover price, you're voting for lower quality books - less editing, no proofreading at all, amateurish layout, obscure marketing at best. Given that all these quality control points have declined in recent decades anyway, it seems sad to try to coerce publishers in to making them even worse.
