I find that most of the top-selling free/low-price books on Amazon's Kindle store are pretty good. Lately I've been using the top free titles list to find new authors to read, and while there are definitely more typos in the self-published books (mine included, I'm certain) than in the big publisher releases, I'll accept a few more errors in a book that is in the $0-$2 range compared to a $13-15 one. It's only when they start to become pervasive and I'm noticing a mistake every few pages that I will put that author aside.
