Affiliate Marketing Secrets

I live in California and I have been an Amazon.com Affiliate for several years. I logged in yesterday to find my account disabled. When I tried to reactivate it I got a message that the State of California has ruled that California residents are no longer qualified to have affiliate accounts. What is up with this? I want to blog this, but need to find out the truth behind this seemingly arbitrary action.

i am a California resident asking any body who lives in places like Arkansas or any other state who had to deal with the amazon tax , did you still buy from amazon after the affiliates where let go from amazon or did you buy your stuff from some where else ? i am just asking if it is still ok to buy from them or not.

Amazon announces it will drop California affiliates if California adopts their budget which would attempt to force Amazon to pay online sales taxes.
This is no empty threat either. Jobs were lost in Colorado over these same disputes.
How is this any different than companies shipping jobs overseas when the taxes and regulations make the USA too unfriendly to do business?

Ok, I made 4 apps, 1 for entertainment, the other 3 are useful. I plan to make them free or $0.99
1. Facebook Plus- it let’s you use the secure version of Facebook, also if Facebook is blocked on your network it will bypass the security (Tested, it works) $0.99
2. Fish Tank- the name is misleading, this is a secret browser that is hidden. The icon blends in, it’s of a happy little fish that I made. $0.99-free
3. Amazon Secure Edition- Let’s you browse the secure version of Amazon.com so hackers won’t get your information, it has the same option as Facebook, if it’s blocked it can bypass security.
4. Pet the Hamster- Cute picture of my hamster, pet him to hear him squeak. Free
would you ever buy any of these, they are currently going through approval with Android Market.

I blog about movies. I want a website I can refer my daily visitors so that they can watch or buy movies and I get to earn a commission from what they spend or if they sign up. I am currently referring my visitors to Amazon and I get only 4% of what they spend. Most DVDs on Amazon go for around 10$ and so when you calculate 4% of that I am barely making anything.
Please give me a list of other websites I can refer my visitors to especially those that charge to stream and watch movies online instead of buying them in disks. Are there any like those?

I have a blog about movies which gets about 700 visits from google search daily. I have been looking around for how I can make money with it. I am using Amazon but I am making too little money because Amazon pays only 4%-6% commission. I got nothing good on clickbank and adsense is not my choice. I have been told to try Google Affiliate Network and I wonder which movies products they have there.
