That assumes that the market will be flooded at all, which I'm skeptical of. Each author would have to do their own legwork in getting the books into the stores, and the massive amount of work involved would seem to be more prohibitive than the anti-big publisher movement would anticipate.
Yes, but my point is sort of: I think there wouldn't be much in the way of bookstores in this scenario, unless the model changes slowly and some sort of flexible distribution method is already in place.
