I know a guy who shoots microstock all the time, and makes money from it, but it's totally screwed up his photography. You go for a meal or a drink with him and he will be rearranging stuff on the table while talking to you, then snapping get a cheesy picture of a napkin and a wine glass. Imo microstock is a very bad thing for photography

He sells a lot of those beautiful girl getting out of swimming pool or exercising in gym type images.
Not soul destroying
