Steve, as I see it, the problem is this: Someone hacked Avery's iTunes password, but to pay for it with Paypal, they'd have had to somehow hack into his Paypal account as well. When I go to pay for something with Paypal, I have to sign in and use my password. If somebody got into Avery's Paypal account without his password, this is Paypal's problem. Unless, of course, Avery's iTunes password and his Paypal password were the same -- never a good idea.
