you come from the point of view that a revshare program should share EVERYTHING with the affiliate.
Its a misguided point of view that has fooled many.
does the affiliate share in the cost of producing the website? No
does the affiliate share in the cost of the processing fees? No
does the affiliate share in the cost of the hosting fees? No
does the affiliate share in the cost of the employees needed to run the program? NO
so you see, its NOT a true 50/50 revshare, its just called that.
the program owner is absolutely entitled to make money thats not shared beyond the price of membership and rebills.

"Absolutely entitled"? A program owner can do what they like, but it may end up losing them affiliates. Like it or not, "revshare" in this industry means a splitting of income (and sometimes the processing fees - you're wrong there). You can try to make up a new definition for it, but if you started "sharing" more fees with affiliates you'd lose many of them fast. A prechecked cross sale could amount to the same sort of thing.
