Answer - They don't. Niether one shares the crossales, upsales or emails.
I like the big PPS model as it is convenient. If I need a lesbian site today. They have one. If I need Big butts tomorrow, they have one. And I only need to track the one check etc. I do not have to worry about retention or other factors just the sale. It is easier for me. But I promote both as some revshares rock.
PS I want solo girls on PPS as my retention with them sucks and they are flaky.

The whole problem is PPS is an
OUTDATED business model...it was started in the days of the wild wild west when companies were slamming credit cards, doulbe billing, hiding xsales, spamming, taking spam, abusive exit consoles and the sites were upsale hell.
These days they've pulled the reigns back on must of that shit.
These days consumers expect more when they slap down a credit card when there are easily 1,000,000 TGPS on the net that have all of the same content for FREE!
The only way you can do PPS now is to offer limited trials...meaning they put in their CC# (a big step) and then they have access to like one video. Myself, I think that is pretty lame. A good limited trial converts around 50% - 55% -- meaning you've just pissed off 45% - 50% of your surfers!
When you join an OCCash site you get full access to the site you joined if you want to see the other 19 sites in the network...there is the upsale...I think that is totally fair.
The problem with PPS is it has become a giant dick measuring contest that nobody wants to back down from becasue nobody want to lose face.
Think about it...what could be more fair that a 50% split of the gross profit of a sale with a merchant? The traffic guys have very small expenses...after a program gets a member you still have to cover their hosting, support, cut the billers their 10-13%, pay out content partners, empoyees, hosting, legal fees, office space, taxes...I could go on and on.
PPS = don't believe the hype.
You promote a good revshare program over a long period of time -- you will make the same amount of money, will abuse your surfers a lot less, and will still wind up making around the same out of money.
Sponsors can only pay what the market will bear.
