Splog software isn't really a very different idea from automated sites makes, automated submission tools, or just about any other "auto" thingie to spew pages. The difference in the blog world is that it destroys or somehow violates a sort of trust that exists between reader and blogger. Even on the most commercial of blog sites, there is some sort of "I know a person wrote this" feeling that makes the blog more or less real.
splogs and cross linked bullshit are just that, and while they will likely score well with SEs for a while, they are the reasons why, in the end, filters will be written and innocent people will get punished in Google's SERPs.
It truly sucks.
