I actually don't disagree that there are good self-published books. It's just that if PW is right, there are 500,000+ traditionally published books coming out each year and 2 million+ indie books.
It just overwhelms mainstream reviewers, prize judges, and others. So I think it's good that there are now separate indie review channels, book awards, etc. And I agree that these are likely to become more important.
