Forgetting the current problems Robert - what reason is there to bill an EU member in dollars? Same with any country - why bill a UK member in dollars?
No reason. Each country (within reason), should have signup pages in their own currency and language. There is also no reason for not using the Big Mac index to price paysite (or any site) costs to reflect the site or 'product worth' within each country.
This is in common use by all transnational corps, including those operating websites - the adult industry is just too backward in this area.
There is far better revenue potential when each currency is matched to the respective country at transaction time. There is no reason why any webmaster, wherever they actually operate, should tolerate currency fluctuation problems - especially to the level currently shown by the US dollar.
Definitely time for this biz to catch up man - we have been doing multi-currency for a few years now, but still the bulk of the industry is still playing with dollars
