I'd really like to just add billing cascading, direct affiliate tracking, and better tracking of which referring links actually turn into joins. It is also important that old affiliate links continue to work. If I were just starting out, I'd probably opt for the Epoch hosted MPA3 system, but I'm not just starting out.
(2) I'd like to be able to cut checks to affiliates. I think that some of my best affiliates don't even notice that they do well with SpookyCash because they don't get their checks from me. I know I take folks who actually cut me checks a bit more seriously. Not on purpose, but it often works out that way. It is easier to forget a sponsor when the check doesn't come from them.

Actually the question wasn't directed to you, it was direct to the Blue guy who just bought a program to do what he already had available to him.
But to address your #2, you can pay your affiliates with Epoch, or have Epoch cut the check, either works and is available. I actually prefer Epoch does it, this way the affiliates are certain they will get paid, not that I wouldn't pay them, but the assurance is there if Epoch does it.
