CanadianLove, good one :)

steveb - nothing in this world has absolute truth. Quality, just as authority, is completely subjective.

There may be new sites coming up all the time that will be perceived of better quality than others. consider Google maps, for a while mapquest was "quality", and now it is just not good enough, although their site hasn't changed much. also consider google - there are lots of folks out there who will argue one way or another that it is "quality" Search Engine. Well, if I am looking for something and not finding it, and finding all kinds of garbage in SERPs, and link: or site: commands don't work, etc. I will move to another SE, and from my perspective first SE will NOT be "quality", yet for others it will be.
