Which is just one reason why the current affiliate model is dying. If I can pay someone in-house to sit there posting on tumblr/facebook/blogs all day long, and then keep 100% of the sales that makes, that is a hell of a lot better than paying an aff 50% of the sales to do the same thing.
Clearly, there are some whale affiliates that in-house could never compete with, but for the main, it seems moving traffic generation in house is a very obvious way to save money. Esp in the EU where we also have to pay 20% VAT on every sale.
