I'm sure it won't last in the long run as they trim people or send them to other jobs, but they may have figured they were doing publishers a favor by charging them 35% instead of both old fees. (60%)Mind you, I can't imagine that either company had a large enough crew to make it a big deal, and I also imagine that either site alone had more than enough capability to handle the "increased traffic".It's just a consumer perspective really, but I don't see how this "merger" matters froma  technical standpoint. It seems more of a "there's less competition, so there will be more sales for the one than either of the two" deal. I don't see how either company needed the others resources.</blockquote>
