Not all programs/sites have their own traffic. At least not enough inhouse generated sales to come close to sustaining production for a growing site. They can incur debt just like any other business. Also why there are so many dead sites comprised of 30 or less scenes (even exclusive ones).
The thread's about how an affiliate program not afford to stay open which was outlined above well by others. Unless the OP meant how a developed revshare site/program becomes one that doesn't pay out anymore, which is theft under the guise of "going out of business."
