why limit the sponsor license to 5 or even 10? i'm not really sure it has to be limited at all as lots of sponsors happily give out the most overused content on the web. if they want it limited, let them pay more. if they don't care, let them pay less.
i'll try and think of some smaller programs to send to this thread. i used to buy affiliate content from anyone who would sell me a license - and i nagged one guy to death. but since i'm not shooting my own stuff, i'm not really in the running anymore.

"lots of sponsors happily give out the most overused content on the web"
I think that may be the whole problem right there. Free content doesn't have as much value to sponsors as it does to the content producers.
So what sponsors are using for promotion is something they value very little.. throwing enough garbage against the wall hoping some of it will stick (borrowed that from you Paul
)
My theory of selling was always to put your best foot forward, it doesn't make sense to promote something with less than the best of what you have... or does it?
I'm still anxious to hear what sponsors have to say about this subject, it should be interesting
