Joe, everything changed with the internet/web and with it's ability for EVERYONE to Publish ANYTHING -- good or not. As I said I don't want to read the entire internet, nor do I want to spend my time reading every ebook publication to see if it is worth my time.
I think there was some of what I'm saying in the print world in the reviews, anthologies, etc. What I'm suggesting is that with the flood of ebooks (many of which would never have made it through the ranks of the publication process) the situation is worse. I see many websites pushing their (less than good) products and authors self-publishing and pushing their work -- work which would never see the light of day except for that fact that they are now their own writer, editor, publisher and promoter.
What I'm saying is there is a greater need for trustworthy reviewing of ebooks than there was in the print world.
