That programs are cutting their online 'affiliate' promotional budgets back and instead are opting to start promoting their products and services directly to consumers of porn over the past 12 months?

It seems that webmaster affiliates have become a dying breed to many program so instad of spending the majority of their time and effort on affiliates a lot of companies i have been talking to over the past few months have been telling me that they are focusing more on the consumer side of the business promotion.

Do you think this is because consumers are less 'savvy' when it comes to being marketed to by porn companies or do you think we truly have hit a level of saturation in terms of the amount of programs out there that returns are just to low for companies to be spending money on attracting new affiliates, especially when hiring board whores is much cheaper for them?

Your thoughts?
