I disagree, I need those points to upgrade my account to premium, also it makes no sense to have an affiliate who makes hundreds of € and not give him a free premium account, I agree only if they restore counting points from downloads like in the past, I believe it was 1 point for every 100 dls.
lol, you are an uploader, you worry about free premium? is that your focus of being an uploader of uploaded.net..
that would be sad..if you can't earn a free premium in a single month, simply quit using ul.to.
downloads don't give you points, 10 sales do.
also, those affiliates who make hundreds of € simply don't care about using the money to pay premium, only those who earn small will need the FREE premium so badly.
of course it's great to have free premium, but give me a reason why UL MUST give you free premium?
they can simply don't give you free premium, they can be still competitive.
it's just a way that UL uses to make you feel "WOW, this is great, I will try to make more sales"
so, in the end, it's all about sales.
and my opinion is that, they need PPD (high paying rate is just marketing words) to attract more uploaders.
whoever focus on PPD are just small uploaders, but the number of small uploaders are a lot of times more than big uploaders who focus on sales.
but PPD - > popularity -> sales!
it's all about sales again!
a lot of kids would do anything they can to get a few dollars (even 2 EU) per day from PPD.
believe it or not, they are russian kids who work 14 hours a day just to get $1 or $2 out of adf.ly commission.
ul.to need the ppd plan to gain more popularity.
they are shaving rebills, definitely, I can bear with that, they can't pay 75%+65% honestly, so we basically earn only from initial orders, what i don't expect is that they start shaving big with initial orders
when the initial order is shaved, it means the rebills never exist either.
at least the initial order should be counted properly, and shave rebills, i don't care. (though i rely so much on rebills)
