Yesterday I contacted them through their web site re the videos, and here is what they sent me:
"MyPoints is paid for the ads that play before videos. This is how we're able to award the Points. Currently the cost of Points awarded far exceeded the ad revenue generated, so we needed to adjust Points so we do a bit better than break even--otherwise we could not continue to offer videos as a Point earning opportunity.
We plan to feature regular video bonus Point offers in the future. We appreciate your patience as we work to improve the video product to supplement member Point-earning activities in the MyPoints program."
So I dunno if the switch back to 1 point per video will be permanent or not. Let's hope. tls
