Its simple, control.
I have been running my own program since 1999 (or 1998, cant rmember), but for me its about control, my question is why would you give someone else so much control over your business?
I own all my own servers in 2 different locations,(mail, DNS, web, video, chat), I own all my own software, affiliate program, password protection, mailing lists and son on, and I have my own merchhant account. All my software is on my servers, I do not (and will not) pay a subscription fee for any of my software. If ccbill or what ever goes down, or the person who controls your affiliate software goes down or what ever, you lose.
If I have an affiliate who writes and says front me something extra on my next check, I can do that if I want, if there is fraud involved I dont send the scammer a check or I can stop a check, I also choose to eat the costs of chargebacks and refunds and not make the affiliate pay it. The affiliate is also not charged a percentage, if he is owned $100, he gets $100, not 80$. Its my business, I control it, I make the decisions, not a bunch of other people. I will never cede control of my business to others.
If any one of these places you rely on, pulls an ibill, you are broke. You also end up paying out less each month in the long run.
