You may not yet understand this but many sponsor program owners time is very valuable, specially if they are still a small to mid sized program that is doing it all themselves.
Many site owners nearly work 24/7 as it is. They need to handle affiliate support, they often need to shoot content, update the site, build new free hosted galleries, edit videos, photoshop pictures, put together promo content zips, put together other promo material, tweak tours and galleries, check stats, look for fraud, promote their own program, and many other tasks.
Now some may rather enjoy the small amount of time they can get off, maybe to relax or just spend some time with others. As it stands most site owners have to do nearly everything already for the affiliate, so why in the hell can they not charge a very small per check fee to use up even more of their time?
