Despite the disadantages nearly all the donations come through PayPal.
Fortunately I never had problems with them, only some requests to send
documents.
Flattr seems to be about small amounts. Thus it requires a lot of
people to join and click on buttons before it's worth the effort.
Any idea how many money goes around through Flattr?
