But by this choice alone you deprive yourself of probably the single best tool for weeding out the absolute garbage. Personally I find that I usually need to read only a few paragraphs of a preview to dismiss the truly terrible. I find the time I spend reading previews to be insignificant. But of course experiences may differ.

I do not agree with your choice, but I do respect it. And given this choice, it is easy to understand your preference for traditionally published books.
