I block publishers whose traffic does not convert for me all the time. I've blocked large well known sites after spending $2,000-3,000 and getting nothing in return. I don't care if you have 1000 or 100 million impressions available and neither do other advertisers whose goal is to make money.

in mainstream when the glut of inventory happened, CPMs cratered all the way down from double digit dollars for many many sites. Some huge, well known sites had CPMs below a dollar. Even today I can buy media on Facebook, Mediafire and others trough Rubicon for cents.

Supply and demand indeed

And if your traffic deserves the minimum CPM you want, then redirect it to a sponsor that would make you that much money. No need to rely on advertisers if your traffic is that great
Actually I'm saying exactly what you are. I'll send my traffic where I want just as you will buy traffic from where you want. I don't have to sell a single hit to Juicy if I don't like the rates. You don't have to buy a single hit from any of my sites. I'm not entitled to anything any more so than you are entitled to get my traffic at the rate you demand.
