Berman said this on the D$ show..
"We're only looking to collect on the income stream
Once.. You
can't collect multiple times on an income stream.. It's simply
not allowed.. It's patent issues"
Then he answered this question:
"The affiliate marketer, who makes revenue from the site.. He's not gonna have to pay because the partner program's already paying?"
by saying:
"If the website (affiliate program) is paying us, we're
not gonna also collect from the affiliate.. It's either gonna be from
one or the other."
And for the record.. he was using the term, "affiliate" as we use it.. just as stated..
So by his own statements.. ANY sponsor who cuts a deal with them has removed liablility from their affiliate webmasters.. Not just Hustler and Vivid..
Unless of course he lied.. on record..
