why do programs choose shitty names for themselves and long, hard to remember names

for their paysites?

actually the second thing has certain advantages for some affiliates but overall from a program perspective - why dont they invest into better sounding, more brandable and easier to remember names ?

Because every webmaster and his mother thinks he can run a paysite and a sponsor program, regardless of being incompetent or not? Just a wild guess.

That's because idiots want mid to high 5 figures for domains that are "better sounding, more brandable and easier to remember."

Correct.

Every time you go to start a new paysite, or anything requiring a domain name you have to spend half a day looking for a good blend between type in, search results, and those not taken.

You have a ton of good one's taken by people who are doing nothing but sitting on them, or have them parked somewhere. All want high figures for them.

I dunno about the idiots part, but it's insanely annoying.
