Maybe that's why WEGcash went under, it's unreasonable to expect a program to continue to pay for free joins without those free joins converting at a reasonable ratio.

I think we will see more PPS / trial programs go under for the same reason. The big dogs might be able to sustain it, but the smaller guys will realize that sticking with basic rev-share is the logical solution to keep their programs afloat during this recession.
