I'm annoyed to be gouged just when the economy is finally picking up again. Actually, I'd be annoyed to be gouged any time.

But, at the end of the day, it is a math problem and my equation says SpookyCash is going to have to pony up to both CCBill and Epoch because doing so will bring in more than $1,000. I don't think there is a lot of choice there. What possible advantage is there in skipping the fee and making less money?
