The affiliate model makes such perfect sense, it's dumb. It's the owners that ultimately screw the pooch and mismanage money or whatever the fuck it is that happens. Most likely a coke addiction.

My point is, if somebody came out with a 100% - and I am not kidding - 100% transparent 50/50... fuck it... 30/70 program that continually produced kick ass content but was 100% visible and just enjoyed owning the entire internet... they would win, we would win.

It would create an environment that would push new programs to follow suit or fail.
But how do yo make a 100% transparent affiliate program? Regardless of the revenue split and the amount of information shared by the program, there will (might) always be someone who claims said program shaves or cheats.
