I could send 4,000 to a full priced site and still end up making the same amount of money, actually more since you're typically only geting $20 - $25 on a $1 trial but $30-$35+ on a full priced trial. As you show with your stats, it's only $$ per click that matters.
True...my whole point is if you have a site with no trial and add a trail it will convert better. There are a ton of other variables you can play with, including paying the webmaster a flat rate for a signup.

Just saying "I don't do trials" is just being lazy
