Like I said the days of spending $30 to get a sign up looking for a $0.10 product are drawing to a close. The affiliate system worked and still works today if a bit poorly. But it will not work tomorrow. It will simply out price itself.
We built it and now we don't like what we built. We built an industry that spends $30 to get a sign up. We try to spend more or ask for more. And the result is we are under threat not from people who steal content, but from people who don't spend $30 to get a sign up.
And that's what has got some very worried. The surfer is not stupid, he is learning. Seems faster than many here.
And please will no one whine about the good of the industry, how the paysites affiliates will suffer, and all those who will go out of business. The people putting up these sites don't give a shit about the long term health of this industry. As most here.
We are here to earn money, few care if the industry lasts 1 year or 10 years. If they can make enough to get out and retire. And that's the harsh truth.
