All of these reasons posted are nice to explain a gradual drop for certain parts of the industry, as well as certain types of traffic - but none of them explain an immediate overnight drop of the magnitude that happened to the two largest affiliate programs out there (that have confirmed personally to me) and 58 other programs that are totally unrelated, different types of programs and located in different countries
We can argue all day about the steady decline (which is certainly there based on our historical graphing) being caused by all types of socio-economic factors - but so far nothing posted could explain the overnight drop that occured to this many affiliates one day in October and has not recovered.
