    the problem i see is that the article categorizes between "good" and "bad" clients, whereas in reality some of the "bad" clients may just be uninformed. I could see someone knowing nothing about design choosing to crowdsource a logo or a concept, since from a neophyte's perspective, crowdsourcing is a lot cheaper and allows you to pull from ostensibly a wider pool of talent. problem is, it will take them a long time, if at all, to realize that what they bought is not that good - and even when they do realize their logo sucks or whatever, they may not make the link in their head between crowdsourcing = shallow design.
