i guess you dont know much about the value of a exmember/biller/processor list. there were some old ones that would net $5-10k+ every DAY! thats worth a lot more(money and risk wise) then a bunch of CC;s. furthermore, as far as i know, no one has ever been prosecuted for list theft, because its damned near impossible to prove. while CC theft is much harder to get away with.

customer emails are one of the most valuable assets an adult affiliate program has.... they should protect them.
