I do not know about you, but that "cheap affiliate model" is fairly costly from a BUSINESS OWNER perspective when you start adding up the TRUE COSTS of supporting a decent number of affiliates.

Hm, I am my own "affiliate manager", I design my own promo tools, I design, produce, post produce and shoot my own content... I do not see this "cost" that you are talking about. Sorry, BF, but I could not disagree more on this one. The bigger cost is paying my taxes every year and having a book keeper on standby and keeping my reciepts. And what is in my sig, is only a third of what I own...
