I swear mainstream people are complete idiots and don't know the concept of affiliate programs.

Mainstream companies just have bigger beauracracies behind them. I was in the same boat with a semi-major company and promoting them. They had a division of the company that apparently has nothing better to do than complain about the shade of maroon used in their logo or the amount of whitespace in between the letters of their name.
I don't think it's that they are idiots, just new to online. They're used to offline marketing and the hoops you have to jump through. They don't understand that online is much more independent.
