How are they "requiring"?  I use Paypal extensively and 
I have not been asked to do that.

Anyway, lately as a seller I try and use Billpoint if I have a 
choice.  I use my Visa card and get $1 off.  So, a final
charge of $5, I only pay $4.  In % that's quite a bit off!

Not to mention the other side-benefits that come from
my credit card company (airline miles, money back.
etc.)

If the seller has a business account with paypal (they
pay a fee for every transaction) I get 1% back as
a buyer.  So for paying a $300 bill via paypal I get
$3 back.  That's quite a bit of unexpected money!

The bottom line is that the competition among different
Internet-based bill-paying schemes is good for all of us.

Given all these choices I don't know why would anyone
want to write a check anymore or wait in line in the
bank or the post office to get a money order!

Just my opinion...
