I don't mean that what's published is the best that's available... just that the percentage of good stuff that's published, is much, much higher than the percentage of good stuff in the unpublished arena.

There are some terrific authors on fanfiction.net. Some who write stories that make people laugh, make people weep. There's some great content available as free PDFs on Lulu.com. But you have to wade through a lot of schlock to find it.
