Amazon has been doing some things the past several months to try to make themselves more attractive to affiliates. They could do a lot more, but at least they have started taking some serious steps.
The increased commission comes at the right time of the year. I'm sure they won't do it, but it would be good if they would raise the commissions they pay on a permanent basis. It would also be much better if they would eliminate those quarterly commission payments and start monthly payments. But they haven't given any indication that such a thing is in the works. It would be a very pleasant surprise.
