    its friction, a really really high amount of friction…

    Not to mention many of the subscription sites (like newspapers) WILL NOT ACCEPT a prepaid card, or a virtual card - they flat refuse them. It has to be a card they can auto-bill forever. Not everyone does this, but enough do that its really rather bothersome friction.

      Seems strange to refuse payments but Im sure there is some accounting person who’s figured it out.
