The problem is many sponsors just can't resist putting their hands in that ole cookie jar. When times get tough it's tempting to use your affiliate's share as your bank. And times are certainly tough. I don't hold a switch to Nats against an ethical sponsor but if I notice my conversions skyrocket and rebills fall hard within a year of the switch then I'm bailing and assuming the worst.
