That has all changed. Now the tube sites run the business and much of the industry is controlled by a few big companies. If people figure out ways to make money they sure as hell aren't going to share it with others and the need for affiliates has shrunk. Many affiliates have moved on. With fewer people in the industry and fewer need for people in the industry, there is less need for a board like this.
