If the sponsor/membership is worth a fuck and the affiliate is worth a fuck rev share is the clear business choice for both. If you (as a sponsor/paysite) offer PPS the only one of the triad (paysite/member/affiliate) who stands to get fucked the hardest is the affiliate. If a paysite injects a console or popup/popunder, as for me you are history in my book as an affiliate. If your paysite has minimal value and can't sell itself, what good are 'impulse buy' popups/consoles? It has 0 (zero) value to me as an affiliate, so why promote it? Does your paysite have any value to the member? Probably not, not if you had to con the initial sale.

Rebills? probably not. Chargebacks? probably. So keep on churning affiliates and members. I'm sure that's profitable. Just the accounting costs alone would eat up the extra nickels. IMHO

Why does online porn have such a tarnished reputation? Jeez...let me think...gosh, I dunno? strongarm marketing? popups? scumware? jeez, i dunno? any ideas? Promises with no delivery? surely not.

This entire thread is about fucking someone out of their money. Either members, affiliates, or both.
