I also have a spreadsheet that is very detailed that shows that the PPS model works and for the same reasons as Marc De I am not going to post it for everyone to see. You have to be a very good business person to make it work and you have to be willing and able to take a large loss in the initial months of the program as it takes a little while to even start breaking even just on the variable costs (not including fixed costs) but eventually it does come, sooner for those then others, but once it does come the rewards mount up and mulitply nicely at a large rate.
I do also agree that every program owner out there large or small wishes this industry operated only on a rev share model as it is more profitable to the owners but that would require every company in the industry to change because the one that didnt would have tons of traffic because (eventhough I am sure I will get arguments to this) most of the time the PPS model makes more for the webmaster.
