Photography is a vicious game. In this racket, top quality does not always mean top sales. A site is only good if it "excites" its customers and can crank out the product at a price that makes sense. I suppose you could say the same thing about fast food, really.
Mickeydees doesn't make a top quality hamburger, but they sell the most.
Personally, I always preferred more "down market"l magazines when I was a kid. Then I watched Penthouse take on Playboy...ruder but 35mm and not as "good". Then Hustler, even "worse" came along and took them both on. English magazines did very well and never hit the high note of quality photography.
And look at the mess Playboy is in today.
