It was the quality on average I was referring to. I'm much less convinced about the quality side of the argument anyway, aside from in relatively trivial ways such as typos.
The quantity side seems straightforward. If you remove the ability to profit from a labour intensive activity, you're surely certain to see less output, simply because the creators will have to spend their time on other things to earn a living. This is not so relevant to blogs, by the way, because whilst they may be time consuming to keep running, the initial creation of the blog and the creation of each article is a short project. This also makes them much easier to create from a psychological point of view than books, film, art, etc.
