Yes, I think that's the future for many.

It's $15 out of Melissa's pocket.

If he never sends another sale, but his original sale continues to get rebills he is now deadweight and it is time to cut him out?
If it means she can pay her bills, the answer is obvious.

That's stupid thinking. It's not the whales out there that are making programs money, it's a huge collection of little guys. When we are gone, the programs are gone. Count on it.
If they make traffic generation in house, why is that. When you close up shop. You will leave the traffic behind. No reason for the program to go.

I've had companies disable my affiliate account because of whatever reason, most of those are gone now.
Because they were generating traffic in house or closing down?

Common business sense in porn is at a premium. There are not too many mainstream businesses that get to hide behind false names, foreign addresses and all the little dirty tricks that the porn business has up its sleeve. If I get ripped for a few grand, I can't afford a lawyer. Thieves know this so they steal.
So leave porn and go to work in Mainstream. Is your name and address freely available?

No matter what, if you take what is not yours, you are a common thief. A lot of people, apparently, are comfortable with that.
It's not a good, ethic or moral thing to do. Welcome to the porn world.

I'm not saying it's right. I'm saying if the ship is going down, you make sure you get your place on a life raft.
