There is plenty of crap published by the big 6, Dan Brown's last few works come to mind. A fair amount of Tom Clancy's recent stuff and stuff published using his name that he didin't actually write. Heck, I would argue that Martin's recent stuff needs to be edited and tightened up big time.

The publishers are not perfect and put out plenty of crap or questionable stuff. At least there is an expectation that the work has been edited, proof read, and reviewed. It has been a long time since I looked at Indie work, mainly because most of what I tried to look at had not been edited, proof read, or reviewed. Sorting through samples to find a book that is readable is a burden.

I maintain that an Indie author who is willing to put in the book description that the book had been edited or proof read that more people would be willing to look at the book.
