For me, yes. The most profitable for the longest amount of time.

What you've said is a little tricky in this business because many of us are B2B. Who is our customer? The affiliate or the end-user? You could provide a great service to your affiliates and only a so-so experience for your end-user and have a long term, sustainable business. There are people who have come in this business made over $10 million and then closed up shop -sometimes under shady circumstances. "good" or not?

I don't have any problem with your definition either. if it's your goal to create a long-term viable business aimed at creating the best experience at a "competitive price" that's great. i think that is one of just many ways to create a successful business though.
When I started out my first year out of college and was running circle-jerk sites I was providing no useful service to any end-users. I was providing a good course of traffic for people who wanted to trade traffic with me though.. And this lead to 6 figure income in my first year out of college. It was a good start and a good learning experience.
