Default Text Link Ads is Dead - Suggested Alternatives?

Since TLA is pretty much dead at this stage I've been removing the code from the various sites where I had it enabled, however some of the sites had a respectable income stream for zero effort.
Are there any sane alternatives?

I'm poking around for one as well.

I had a great run with TLA while it lasted. As you said, respectable income stream for zero effort.

Remove the links and file for reinclusion... then move on to some other forms of payment. Or hang out for a while and then go under the radar.

Do I need to file for reinclusion? As far as I can tell the sites have been hit badly on the PR side, but are still getting SERPS ....

Just wondering ....
