And everyone who uses sites like addictinggames.com as their primary, or even a major source of the best quality games they play, raise their hands.
Granted, there's a lot of crap on XBL Arcade, WiiWare and PSN in terms of downloadable games, but most of the freeware games posted on free gaming sites are the equivalent of homework assignments, or hobby projects done by amateur or budding programmers/developers.
Freeware/shareware is a nice cheap alternative to retail gaming, but for the most heavy gamers, subsisting on them would be like weight lifters trying to subsist on free hors d'oeuvres.
What you'll probably see in the future is indy games being released through services like Steam, which means there will be standards for what gets the green light for distribution, just like any of the other distribution services. No need for retail copies, minimal risk, but definite quality standards.
