It's easy to pay $125 or $200 a signup whatever when 90% of the traffic has no hope of being a signup.
So basically, you need a product that can't be tubed or torrented. Pills, hookers, or t-shirts might work.

Yup, saturation is a whole different issue.
And there's another one in regards to the payouts. The economic system with adult affiliates is broken, it has been for a long long time. If you want a program of a significant size, the pressure is there to pay at least $35 a signup. And if you want a really big share of the sheep, do the $100+ payout days.
Meanwhile, the economics and mechanics of a signup alone dictate that a customer is not worth anywhere near that right now.
What happens then is anytime anyone in adult anywhere gets a surfer to part with their credit card number, we pile everything we possibly can onto the card to feed the cash engine.
I have a pretty good idea how this corrects itself finally...
