Surely you all remember the old 1990s revshare pitch -- the idea was that you could send a lot of traffic, get a revshare stream built up, and then go lounge on a beach somewhere and drink umbrella drinks while the money rolls in. Nope, it wasn't ever realistic, but that was the marketing. And now, what? If you stop sending new sales, we term your account and eat all the rebills you spent ten years building up?
Fucking convenient.

That pretty much about sums most of the programs that have closed the door on affiliates.
