Personally, I wouldn't touch anything, let alone get involved with anything Steve Case or his merry band of vulture capitalists cooked up. That goes particularly and especially for this deal. My guess is when they couldn't buy it they set out to try to wreck it.

Besides, what's wrong with PayPal? It works, it's reputable, I've never once had a problem with them. And, when someone tried to burn me on one transaction, the PayPal troops were quickly responsive, communicative, and fast (really fast) to get the problem resolved. IMHO, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
