Even if they could I doubt any of them would. They're thinking shorter term now rather than long term. It's easier to get all the traffic, offer higher payouts than they should, and upsell much of it to the other larger paysites than it is to work on their own membership retention. Less risk for them because they don't have to worry as much about retention. You see them cross-billing more and more now, with the extra checkboxes to get them signed up at other sites at the same time.
yup, we even toyed with the idea of crossbilling, but decided against it...

I love the idea of conversion based per signup...hmmm, might be worth looking in to......
