It is the longevity of our business that is interesting and wanting to be in business for many years to come that makes it well worth the while to ensure that a software like MPA3 or any competitor alike keeps a completely clean line of business.
Companies choose a software for is dependency and reputation, features and support - it should be the KEY factor to check into this before making a decision on which software and company to go with.
We took a very firm stand on this years ago and have never looked back. Here is an example I think people should know about and take to heart: http://www.xbiz.com/news/news_piece....&mi=all&q=mpa3

I only disagree with you when you say "at this point in time". IMO being caught doing so at any point in time is relevant.
I understand you now have a stand against it and I am glad to see it. However, I see you doing so as a business decision. To me it is more of a moral issue. It's really as simple as right vs. wrong and goes back to what was mentioned earlier that if you make more money with sponsor A and they shave then that is ok.
To me, it isn't. I'd rather make a lesser, fair dollar amount with sponsor B than use someone who is cheating me just because I make a few extra dollars now. Sponsor B will be a much more lucrative relationship in the long run.
