I use PayPal, Amazon, and Google Checkout. PayPal and Amazon are almost interchangeable. Google Checkout, on the other hand, is relatively weak (doesn't support bank accounts, is slower, more false positives, weaker API, etc.).

This seems more like a DailyWTF than a sweet optimization to be reminiscing about. I'd love to hear more details about this. I mean a single video is about the equivalent of tens of thousands of 404 pages. I'm not sure which is more mindb
