Remove the inconvenient paper dongle and introduce pricing flexibility and things that previously were not profitable now are.

I'm all for this as long as it doesn't cause a descent into poorly made, ripoff, or other junk products flooding the market.

It very likely will; but then something else will come around that will help us review these stories, and it'll probably make money off advertisments (for books, even).

the market is effectively unbounded too, though - you just need better client-side filtering to remove what you consider junk products from your personal view.
