I don't think most people would have a problem signing up with PayPal. If
you think about, almost any site that sells something will usually have you
fill out a membership form so that when you go to buy from them again, you
don't have to fill in all the info over and over again. Amazon.com is one
that comes to mind. Same with PayPal

Just my $0.02
