That really doesn't compute. However, best of luck to whatever they go on to next.
Yeah, if you payout a big ass PPS but you're monetizing that join and still making a profit off of it then it's all gravy. Millions of dollars worth of gravy. But if things changed and now you're just paying out a few rebills from old traffic I would say that they see no reason to keep paying it out.

Their content wasn't gonna draw (already free everywhere) and their affiliates (including me) don't have enough traffic anymore (most traffic is now at pornhub, redtube, etc.) to make it worth it to keep paying on those rebills.

It sucks. But that's what is happening and before it's all said and done I'm sure that many of the programs with generic non-exclusive content are gonna pull the plug in the same way.

Best any of us can do as affiliates is try to ride the storm out and see what's left in the end.
