Affiliate payouts

Amazon pays out affiliates every time their account tops $10.  This is about the normal range for such programs.

Google Adsense, on the other hand, doesn’t pay out until the user has accumulated $100.  This means that there are potentially millions of dollars in the accounts of content generators with $99.99 or below in their accounts that Google will not, and may never, pay.  This is hardly fair.  $100 in ad revenue for a small site is a lot.  Anyone think there’s a class action coming?
