Consider this:
Back in the day, programs were making money by offering 5% and 10% commissions to affiliates. Consumers were hungry and online porn was new. Things were good.

when you say back in the day are you speaking of the 1800s?
cuz back in the 90's programs like Gamma and Hpic were paying 30 bucks a pop pps, i dont think i ever used an affiliate program which paid 5 or 10%, even Pecash was at 25 - 35% depending so...no i think your theory is wrong.
It is true that later aff programs started spiking to 40, 50...100 bucks a pop to compete and of course added more pricey sales widgets etc.
As a matter of fact, considering that most pps nowadays is STILL 30 to 40 bucks, affiliates and program owners are making far less if you adjust for cost of living from 1997 to 2011.
