Hey Shap, great to read all your responses in this thread and all the other business threads you have contributed to - fantastic chance to learn from a talented business man!

I have a question for you, that would be interesting to hear from your perspective as a previous site owner.

Are discounted membership prices an advantage for the affiliate? Obviously many factors can affect this, but I am talking overall and of course in our specific case as a review site owner.

I have been struggling to collect some solid data for this, since many factors can vary. But intuitively it would seem like a bad deal for the affiliate if we're talking revshare, unless the member stays a member for considerably longer than normal. Especially if the surfer would be likely to sign up anyway regardless of the price. It seems like a continuous downward spiral only to compete on price.

And a follow-up question: Did price point become a more important factor for Twistys etc. over the years?
