I am very interested in these responses as one of those independent authors! My personal approach is to consider books based on whether the subject appeals and the depth of the reviews rather than whether they are independent or not. It seems that independents find it really hard to acquire genuine good quality reviews which makes it difficult to assess them..

So I would pay the same price for an independent even though in practice the vast majority do not charge the same as a mainstream publisher..
