Whether or not one considers that to be a good or a bad thing is, I suppose a matter of personal taste. I'm partial to it personally, and I don't think there's the slightest chance that mainstream publishers are going to disappear.
Very true. But a lot of better indie authors now are employing good editors.

You do not need a BPH to do any of that now. plib is correct when he states that even so called "popular" authors do not need the BPH's either.

Everything has changed in regards to how books are published, it remains to be seen of the BPH's evolve or become part of the fossil record.
