yeah, i've wondered about this too. why allow yourself to be held hostage to paypal? perhaps it's the impulse factor. maybe people will drop ten bucks on a link, but they won't when purchasing stamps, envelopes and money orders requires leaving the house. still, if i was facing oblivion, i'd be promoting all kinds of alternatives.
