Will it really be difficult to find a good ebook?

Another article has been written recently bemoaning the digital self publishing revolution that is taking place right now.  It says that because we can publish without going through a gatekeeper who will filter out most of the junk books (going through the slush pile), that there will be a mountain of poorly proofread/edited/written stories.  So much, in fact that the readers will find it nigh on impossible to find a good read.  Well, Kristine Kathryn Rusch has crafted a response to this that I think everybody should read.  It can be found at: http://kriswrites.com/2011/07/06/the-business-rusch-slush-pile-truths/.  Her husband, Dean Wesley Smith has his own response here: http://www.deanwesleysmith.com/?p=4854.
