So what is your point when you say that many big six publishers do not earn out their advances?

My interpretation of why you stated it was to say that not many copies were being sold. When you read the Shatkin and Laube articles I would argue that you cannot make that conclusion with any certainty just because a book has not earned out it's advance. If the publishers are moving enough copies to make money then they are selling a good number of books.
