It all adds up to a pretty good chunk of money... although it's still cheaper than renting a storefront. :-)
Good point! I still don't quite get the idea behind the annoying monthly fees though. If a cms works and you are happy with it, then why should you be paying a monthly fee? I wouldn't mind buying a CMS and sticking with it for a year or 2 then perhaps go for something like sitedepth or one of the more greatly used CMS scripts and going with a monthly fee.

It would be nice if you could decide if you want support and updates rather than getting them shoved in your face to start off with.

But I will figure that bit out eventually.

ccbill is great because affiliates are used to it and more willing to try out a new ccbill sponsor with no fear of minimum payout, but that $750 is annoying. I paid it the first year when I signed on as a Canadian, and then restructured as a uk company and brought a Brit "partner" aboard.
Yeah I love ccBill as an affiliate, and I want to use it for my paysite.
I like your idea of using a brit partner. I'm from England originally but decided to move my ass over to canada now I will have the $750 for ccbill set-up

I could probably quite easily go through ccbill EU but I will have to figure that out.

Thanks for all the ideas and oppinions everyone
