As for the revshare issue, I about gag at the thought that even 70-80% with pre checked is ripping off the affiliate. I have a hard time swallowing even the 50% model for the vast majority of affiliates based on the amount of resources and tools they use. I may get very flamed but I honestly do think affiliates are over paid and I say this as both a paysite owner as well as an affiliate to a shitload of paysites and programs.

Oh hell I agree with you regarding how much affiliates are paid, though in general compared to other payout models I feel offering a revshare and not including prechecked xsells isn't the done thing. The PPS model is one that gives a flat payout calculated from all revenue streams, and even if you sell a trial you get your $30. Revshare is a model that represents a share of the site's profit .. in essence you are going into partnership with the program for the life of that surfers membership. Only paying out on the core membership and ignoring the very profitable xsales and pops etc is poor, though I admit most of those programs have a PPS option which is almost always better.
