iTunes affiliate links in app... has anyone used?

http://www.apple.com/itunes/affiliates/resources/documentation/itunes-app-store-affiliate-program.html Hey guys just wondering has anyone used these affiliate programs? I was wondering how do you determine which region best matches your market. My app hopefully will be worldwide, and it looks like these programs are based on a regional model.... Ichigo

Most of my apps include affiliate links using linkshare.com. I've built a page within the apps that mimic the itunes store. When a user selects one of the items (music, videos, books, etc) it triggers the affiliate link that then opens itunes. Works well. Initially, the linkshare link would open safari then redirect to the itunes app. They've recently changed that so that it bypasses safari. It works great.

Hi, I also have affiliate links in one of my app. But when I click on it, I have the following error message: Your device could not determine which app to use to open this URL? My affiliate links are like this: <li><a href="browser://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/stat?id=**********************************************************</a></li> Does anybody knows where the error comes from?
