TGP's, link lists and the like have rules not because they're concerned with you making money, but because your sites are in effect their content. If their (your) content is good, the surfer bookmarks their TGP and comes back daily. You don't think the Hun is getting 1 million hits a day from links do you? It's bookmarked traffic. The second the surfer starts getting console hell from TGP links, he stops visiting the TGP every day.
The key is to get away from the "if you like this then you'll love paying $29.95 a month for more of the same shit" kind of advertising that too many people rely on. Try to promote the sponsor as a source for stuff that the surfer will NEVER get for free, and he'll be a lot more willing to pay for it.
