That's great for you. In my experience when I read the top suggested reads/writers it's a one way street. I will still read writers I like regardless, but for many here there was a community feel established when we found writers we liked and made friends that has been lost with the new following feed/our missing author heads. It means our reads are tanking, it's not so much about fistfuls of cash as it is diminishing results for the same effort.
