I, for example, have spend literally thousands of hours hand-formatting and proofing the complete works of Charles Dickens, which you can download from here free. I'd like to think that they might be considered "worth something" in terms of quality .
Maybe free ebooks was a reference to new books that was free and then I agree that self published free ebooks usually are not worth reading. It feels a bit wrong to me to call old public domain books for free ebooks.

If I am not going to read an ebook it is not worth anything for me. The quality of an unread ebook does not give me anything of worth.
