Another self-pubbing vs being with a publisher question


Several authors I know are starting to produce their own books and self-publish.  These are authors who are already with a publisher, but for some reason or another, are choosing to go the self-pubbed route.

They're figuring that, since they're already pubbed, and their books are already on Amazon, Fictionwise, and ARe OmniLit, that they have a readership built in who'll buy their books no matter where they're pubbed.

I've heard this type of arguement before, but it seems to be growing in strength with the increased number of self-pubbed books.

My question is this:  Should an author go with self-pubbing once they've established a name for themselves?  Or should they stick with their publisher?
