:2cents paysite owners: signup/recurring improvement question

To be better able to resist bruteforce attacks from hackers i am giving out random passwords and usernames to members instead of letting users choose their own. I was woundering if giving out random usernames and passwords to paysite members influences the number of signups and lenght of rebills.

I was analysing some data which made me wounder this.

In my opinion it does have a negative effect, mainly due to the fact that new subscribers might be affraid of losing their random generated password and username due to computer crashes or f.e hiding it from their wife. Therefor more customers cancel their membership immediately after the purchase.

If this would affect the number of signups and the number of rebills, the question would be how much would it be expressed in percentages.

Anybody want to share their thoughts/experience on this issue?
