The old methods does not scale well when we get a big infusion of books that have not passed a gatekeeper. That is why I ignore nearly all books that have not passed a publisher.

You still have a critical faculty where you would know if a book is worthy or not (and that doesn't take much more than a couple of paragraphs to discern).

That is not true at all. You have to read maybe 100 pages to be able to tell if it is a good book you want to read or just an OK book that was a waste if time to read since you then will read one less good book.
