Apart from their role in discovering artists and authors and presenting them to the public...? I'm still happy to pay them for doing this... One quick look at the Internet shows that talent is still rare, and expecting everyone to trawl through the dross isn't very workable...
Though of course they should be paid at decent rate rather than the current silly sums for Sony's ebooks
