I'm not bashing them at all. They have a market and they have done a good job, but it's just not for me.

Well, let's clarify something here, CCBill stopped billing for "teen model sites" on Nov 15, 2002 which was exactly the time that Visa/MC came town and hammered CCBill and iBill with the new IPSP regs (I know because I had just started working for Verotel a month earlier and we were jumping for joy because so many iBill and CCBill webmasters were moving over) and then all those sites moved over to GloBill, WebsiteBilling and Globosale until they ended up getting kicked off the porch, at which time they all moved over to Verotel. And btw, Verotel stopped billing for those sites also when the IPSP regs came to Europe in March 2004 - not so recent past.

Given the history, it may be a bit presumptuous to call it a "clear business decision" which implies that CCBill stopped processing for those types of sites on their own accord. I'm not bashing CCBill or anything just trying to paint a clearer picture as to what most likely prompted that clear business decision.
