Even in the REAL world, workers often dictate how much a company pays for labor. If Company A and Company B both need 10 workers, but only 10 people total apply for jobs at both places and Company A pays 15% higher wages then don't blame those 10 for going to work for Company A over Company B.
You really don't see it do you. Think it through.

How much do Torrent, Piratebay, Megarotic and the others like them pay per join. So how come they survive without affiliates?

In a few years you might be lucky to get 10% and you might earn more on 10%. Think if your % was cut by 80% and the affiliate numbers cut by 90%. more money for those left here.

I might be very wrong, but that would mean the sites I quoted are not a problem and this thread a waste of time. If they are a problem they have a better business model than us and we need to change.
