You need to understand that there's a large slice of users who use PayPal exclusively, because they perceive it as a safer online payment option. These users see a credit card payment form (say, hooked up to Stripe), they panic and they start sending "who the hell do you think you are to be asking for my credit card number?" emails. We tried arguing, we tried explaining that we don't see the CC info and that we are getting far more personal data on them when they use PayPal, but it was all pointless. They don't care. They want PayPal. So the question is if you want these people's money or if you are willing to take a hit in sales just to stick it to PayPal.
