For every small step Google makes forward, Yahoo! seems to make one giant leap backwards.

If you want to be the most relevant SE, then itâ€™s only logical that open market competition will result in the survival of the fittest "or most relevant".

Dictating ranking and quality is changing Yahoo! into a "Superbowl" Billboard - you'll buy from who we tell you to buy.

If Yahoo's intention is to improve ad's quality and then ad's click-through-rate, this is definitely the wrong move. Only by allowing all the agencies and affiliates to compete or to complement, the ad with the best quality will be discovered.

From this perspective, Yahoo is still way behind Google.

I heard it was like 25%-30% – but that number is yet unconfirmed.

Yahoo! seem to be in the business of shooting themselves in the foot. Can you remember the stats in terms of what % affiliate traffic made up? I remember it to be substantial…
