Joseph, My own observation is that a few companies have been leaving BeFree for Linkshare. It may be premature to say who is leading the pack , but all fingers are pointing to Linkshare. Additionally I think that BeFree is targeting the very large monster merchants, wheras I think the small-medium size merchant arena presents the most opportunity. (Just my opinion). I have not been privy to the BeFree revenue numbers, so it would be great if you could elaborate on those details. HOWEVER, I note that I have recently seen some of the metrics for Linkshare and it was nothing short of fantastic. The metrics that I have seen indicate that the affiliate network model does work. I will share some of those metrics soon. Anything you could tell us about the BeFree numbers would be helpful. Thanks, leeza
