		<description>Sure, a lot of people say that it will be the end of G, it happens after each controversial decision of theirs but, in the end, I doubt that we will see another market leader anytime soon.

		<description>It's actually funny how a company with an army of consultants didn't know better. This entire issue could have been avoided if they had chosen this approach in the first place, rather than making changes later on.

		<description>Yes google stopping the referral commission for  their adsense program except Japan and Latin america. Really it is loss for publishers. But as we aware referral commission is only a small part in adsense income other than search and adcliks. A monoploy site can take any steps. Let us see how can we survive without the referral commission. The referral commission is only 0.5% of my adsense income.</description>

		<description>It's at least good to see that they are responding to the overwhelming negative feedback they've received as a result of their decision, but they should have seen something like this coming before making the announcement.

		<description>Izea have launched something like that but at this point, it's hard to imagine that it can compete with PR, but as far as the future is concerned, who knows what competitors may have up their sleeve :)

		<description>A lot of people predict the downfall of G on a regular basis but it seems that, no matter how controversial their decisions may be, they somehow manage to stay on top.

		<description>To be fair, they have reversed their stance on that and are going to let anyone remain an affiliate, but they will only pay you for referrals that are from North America, Latin America, and Japan. It no longer matters where you live, it's about where your referral is from.</description>
