Online Goods: Whole lot easier than dealing with Paypal.
Could you expand on this please? I feel like paypal is pretty easy to deal with as a consumer. As a merchant it's a completely different story of course, but most consumers don't know or care about that.

Thank you for all the feedback guys. Good stuff! Smiley

I don't have to login anywhere and I often forget my Paypal password because they are always auditing my account and forcing me to change my password (I have had to prove who I am to them via fax twice in the past 6 months).

With Bitcoin I just copy/paste the address and I'm done.  No username/password to remember, no one auditing my account, no one asking me for personal information, no waiting on people to verify my information.  Just simple clean transacting, just like cash.
