Actually I've just returned from the Paypal Connect conference in San Francisco, and I can tell you that from what I saw and heard it has nothing to do with someone suing them...
Their methods of fraud control are simply not compatible with the adult revenue models and since the % of their business that is affected is miniscule in comparison to the rest of their income, there is no real reason for them to stay in the adult marketplace.
The question did come up more than once and no one -- not ONE person from customer service to corporate management, had anything to say negatively towards the industry itself.
It's a simple situation, similar to why AMEX had to leave adult. If you can't control the fraud, you can't be in the business.
