If I were just trying to escape paying my bill with this method, I would in fact be commiting fraud. However, no company is going to expend the resources to track down a possible $29.95 fraud which will be difficult to establish without the delivery of any real world goods.

I don't see how processors could do anything about this. This is a Visa issue, and Visa is within its rights to make any restrictions they see fit. Last I checked adult webmasters were not a protected group, and thus it's not even discrimination. Witness American Express's complete exit from Adult.

Visa is bigger than microsoft, we're at their mercy.
Processing and Merchant banks are still subject to competition.

On a dynamic level Processors can align with several merchant banks.
At the end of the day even Merchant banks themselves are subject to competition.

SOmething everyone does not think is possible or viable.

I say NAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!

It is possible and natural.
