They're working on it. :-)
Actually, 'publishing houses' isn't a good comparison. They are more 
selective filters and marketers than they are producers in today's 
world. If you hang around writers communities like I do, you'll find 
that self-epublishing is the current buzz. Greater pay-off for the 
author, too, if they can figure out the marketing bit. And with viral 
marketing and networking, that's not too difficult, either.

Our truest response to the irrationality of the world is to paint or 
sing or write, for only in such response do we find truth.
