The more precise the math is, the better a company can do with low margins. This business used to be sufficiently high margin that the math was not necessary to do well.
I might be using the wrong term for it when I say "cpm" out of some ignorance for the proper term. But I am using it in this case as in $3 cpm means for every 1000 views (or whichever we use and as counted on this site in question not on a sponsor or ad purchaser) Manwin is able to earn $3 by all monetization methods in use like popunders,ads,their own paysite ads,etc. I know for affiliates legal tubes often earn $0.50-$2.00 cpm these days. So I'm thinking $3-$5cpm for them is a reasonable estimate.
