Call me crazy, but my gut tells me that a password I make up is going to be more secure than a password that some company's algorithm generates. To this date, there is not a single piece of mainstream software that I know of whose serial number algorithm has not been cracked, and I don't see why that won't happen to paypal no matter how secure you say it is.

These are basically impossible to crack w/o having physical access to the server generating the keys. Seriously the sites should get on this. And I don't care if I have to carry more than one, the extra security would be worth it.
