I appreciate your perspective, actually. I’m curious whether Google will allow AdSense publishers to opt OUT of the program, and of course, you can have an ‘advertise on this site’ link already on your site. But then you can’t slip the ads that you’ve sold into the Google AdSense block, so you’d force a redesign of your site AND you can’t have it look the same either (read the AdSense terms of service).
