Just a thought... the way around this is to offer a tangible product,
which then qualifies you for PayPal's merchant protection. Example:
The product you are selling is an audio CD or CD-ROM with the MP3's they
ordered. As an added "bonus" they will also get acess to a restricted
link where they may download their MP3(s) for instant gratification.
Not only will you get PayPal's merchant protection this way, but you
just might reduce bandwidth on your server. People with slower dial-up
connections might just be willing to wait for the postman.
All IMHO of course, to be taken with a grain of salt.
Incidentally, you might want to take a peek at the eCommerce module for
Drupal (as well as the PHP source code)....
