Hmm I didnt know that changed. I have been averaging anywhere between $200-$300 a month with them (sucks though as it is from about 9000+ clicks).

Oh, one other note ...
If you're doing PPC direct linking, make sure you read the TOS carefully. For example, if you're promoting Amazon Kindle, don't bid on "Amazon" as part of a keyword. I did that last year starting on that product's release date and my promotion took off like wildfire with gobs of commissions from sales of that product as well as all kinds of other shit.
Since I hadn't ever promoted an actual Amazon product before that, I didn't even think about the part in the TOS that said ya can't bid on "Amazon" as part of a keyword. DUH! After fewer than 3 weeks with only a few direct-link Adwords ads running with low bids and no landing page, my commissions had grown to over 10K. I was too busy during that time to build a proper landing page, but I figured I was doing well enough. Then I got that nice account termination email.
Still makes me pout a little when I think of it
Anyway, hope that helps.

Ah! I hadn't noticed that.
If they sent an email, I missed it since I had to re-register after getting my account banned last year for the issue I described above.
Thanks for the heads up!
