Why are there six sites in the Big Five?

There is a real question in this.

Month after month I watch people post graphs and numbers and percentages and photo site comments. After the big six, the income is an insignificant dribble for most of us.

There may be a new site someday that will make the big six the Magnificent Seven.  :)

Why does anyone keep uploading and feeding the doomed sites that are providing a return of 0-1% of the earnings? Wouldn't it make more sense to invest that time on one of the paying sites, instead of spending it where there's little or no return?

One more photo on one of the top sites, can equal or exceed a whole month at one of the Morbid-Micros, for the whole collection.

Part two of the question. Assuming that I have photos up on dormant and non-preforming sites, do I just leave them or should I attempt to close my account?

I can see that having pictures up that will never reach payout, doesn't do much, but if they are gone, they will never have any chance of selling. It also seems to do no harm, having photos up, where no one sees them?

Do I want to give money to site "X" for that lonesome download, or should I be removing and deleting my images? Removal protects the images from distribution dilution.

Delete the photos and close account, or ignore them? What do you think?

I voted to let them sit there because if the agency become a super agency in 2060 it can give me what to pay my pills (you know which) when I will be old

But as I never go whit a mini agency (out big 6)...

I voted to remove images and leave the site, since it can be addictive checking if there is still a sale.

I am $3.40 from a payout! When I hit that I will consider dumping a real slowwwwwww performer. This other piece is that I use a some photo management software that uploads to multiple sites so there is not a lot of effort. I process once and send them on.

I couldn't vote because on one site I deleted all my photographs and my account and on the other I've left them there but stopped uploading.
