Check it out. Nice... http://www.staremagazine.com/Store/PurchaseIssue.asp?IssueID=115

Bitpay says it's fully automated and "You can now join the website, pay with bitcoins (it pulls the current exchange rate) and get instant access with the username/password you picked."

I can vouch for both STARE and the payment system they're using. It's excellent.

Great way to spend some of your coins, because you're not just encouraging Bitcoin usage from a random vendor but you're also encouraging the Bit-pay system behind it. Give it a try.

Heh, have never heard of stare.  Maxim next maybe?  Still this always makes me think about child porn (not like that) but not requiring any form of identification makes it really easy no?

bruteoger, please edit your above comment, it has nothing to do with what you are 'labeling' it with, try rewording your question without using terms you don't understand. 
Visa would not process for them otherwise.

This doesn't make sense.  Child porn is illegal and has nothing to do with checking the ID of the buyer.

if you are referring to the fact that minors can view or buy pornography on the internet, well it's pretty much everywhere.  and kids get hold of their parents credit cards all the time.  There's not much you can do about it really.  There is no way to check someone's ID over the internet.

this guy is not aware of sites showing hardcore porn videos for all to see without any age verification.

and stupidly labeling your biz with what clearly isn't the case.

Tony - Did you add STARE to the wiki list of vendors? I did quick search and didn't see it.
