The customer IS owned by CCBill or Epoch. They own the merchant accounts that are being used, and even without Mastercard deciding to enforce their own existing rules, those surfers have always belonged to the IPSPs.

You don't take your data with you if you go, like you do with a merchant account. But you also don't have to worry about customer service, fraud control settings and MC/Visa fines when you use them. It's an even trade.
