Deduct the cost of hosting for the affiliate's hosted galleries, the processing fee, the content cost, legal representation, staff overhead, and the bandwidth used in the members area...Oh... and the price of a program like Pennywize to stop people from trading the PW's... After all that money is factored in, I'd say that the cost per sale in the owner's pocket is much less than you assume.
I have no problem with paysites offering upsells. Afterall, I got paid for the membership to their site already... What they offer inside of that site is their business.
I'm so tired of hearing affiliates bitching about program owners. If life is so bad, why not start your own sites?
