EBay's PayPal rule in Australia draws fire
 

SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) - EBay Inc. is exploring whether to require customers to use its online payment service PayPal, a move that has angered users and prompted antitrust scrutiny in Australia, where a PayPal-only rule takes effect next month.

After repeated queries, the online auction company said late Friday it will not institute such a rule in the United States. But it remains unclear whether eBay will still try it in other countries. EBay often tests big changes in smaller markets before expanding them worldwide, and says it is open to that in this case.

GRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!! and the 21st is slowly approaching.

I read that people preferred Windows XP to Windows Vista. So Microsoft didn't like that. Microsoft then stopped selling Windows XP and is trying to phase it out and FORCE PEOPLE TO VISTA because people don't like it as much, just like eBay is forcing people to use paypal because more and more people are avoiding paypal so ebay decides to force them now.
