As most countries treat TAX/VAT avoidance more seriously than rape, this is one area where you shouldn't be listening to what a friend of a friend is saying.
In this case you would not bill the members from your EU based company, but from the US. That means, you would need to have the US company have a contract with CCBill US of course. US companies are not paying any VAT on memberships.

The US company would receive invoices for usage of the content that was produced by the EU company ... this could be fixed price or percentage based ...
