If what I keep hearing through the grapevine is any indication, spam is becoming oversaturated and a lot of the bigger guys are even having problems making the money they used to.
There are still a handful of guys making the big bucks, but the days of 500-600+ joins per day from mailing are getting closer to ending.
I know when I used to "put people together" for creative marketing, it used to be a huge thing, now it's getting tighter with fewer resources and it's getting more expensive. The high price of BP hosting is making it even more expensive and cost prohibitive. It's not spamhaus/spamcop pissypants whining that is making a dent, it's the opportunists with overseas hosting connections jacking up prices for BP hosting....
there is still money to be made in legit opt-in mailing and even outright spamming, but it's not what it used to be and newbies will get eaten alive...hell, even I'm too much of a newbie to attempt it these days...
