Is this ethical to put your tgp archive behind an avs?

[Northeu]

I claim: Any sponsor who do not want their free content used behind a password in a avs site don't know how to make money.

And like Tommy said - I would never have asked because I could never imagine that a sponsor didn't want that to happen.

I started with AVS 3 years back when Jeff from Karups adviced me to use content from karupspc in avs sites as its the best traffic. Today the traffic quality from avs is still good compared to all other free places eventhough the avs companies are fewer.
Traffic is low but it converts. I found 3 good avs and thats fine.

Check the terms for this sponsor. AVS are mentioned specifically.

In fact, I find similar statements within the terms of many of the sponsors I promote, which is what prompted my inital response to this topic.

If you're using purchased content to build the AVS, and only linking banners etc. to the sponsor, that's an entirely different critter. I don't think any sponsors would have issues with that.
