There are shelves full of evidence that coming out of a BPH is no guarantee of quality by any stretch, even if 'very good' was some how an objective measure.

A reviewer with tastes in line with yours would provide the same assistance in finding very good books without the downside of raising prices, censoring, etc.

The question of what price to charge for the content based on the 'quality' of the content applies equally to paper and ebooks, of course.

These are issues for other threads, though. I should probably not drag my own thread too far off topic.
