The problem w/ free / inexpensive and unregulated is that one then has to sift through a _lot_ of chaff. The other problem is one winds up w/ a dictatorship of the majority, w/ only the populist view being heard after the application of edits (examine any controversial article on Wikipedia for an example of this).
One the bright side, one can usually get submitted corrections acted on, but I am getting really tired of trying to read stuff for enjoyment or edification and having to instead work as an unpaid editor. An occasional typo to report is fine and understandable, we're all human and mistakes happen, but in things which I've been reading on other sites there's apparently little effort to edit or even review before uploading or hitting ``post'' (which makes the high quality ebooks and posts here a pleasure).
