>what I read at Henk van Ess's Search Bistro ,I recon will bring a lot winds of war in the marketing industry(ie nuking affiliate sites that have the codes and urls of several well known affiliate marketing companies). That will damage economically as well the 90% of all the WebmasterWorld members that run affiliate programs. <

I don't think that Google is waging a general war against affiliate program marketing, and there is no indications that Google is doing so.

Google is just trying to clean up the serps of affiliate link farms, banners farms and affiliate pages with no values added.

Affiliate program marketing pages with good contents are still ranking well on the serps.

So please go ahead and join serious affiliate programs and just remember to create valuable PRE-SELL pages. Good luck.
