@DiapDealer. Not a lot of room for argument here. Anecdotal evidence is like that. My anecdotal evidence such as it is is a couple of posts in these forums from like minded people. Even I haven't abandoned the Big 5 altogether. I do borrow the odd Big 5 title from one of the several libraries I am a member of. I won't even guarantee that I won't buy a Big 5 book in the future if it is well priced and I really want it. But before agency my favourite authors were all tradpub. Now they are all Indie, with the lone exception of John Sandford.
I do suspect that the agency fiasco has lost the Big 5 many sales, though of course there is no real evidence either way.
