News Article to Read

I found this interesting:

http://www.nytimes.com/2008/12/23/business/23craft.html?_r=1&adxnnl=1&adxnnlx=1230044649-E0l6G3c7v/6NFFTP6hmgXw

I think that this article says a lot about the crafting industry and this Christmas seaon in particular. One Etsian remarked that it made crafting seem cheap. Do you think that this is giving crafting a bad name? Or is this good press for crafters and handmade artists?

Let me know what you think.
