Can I Just Use MoneyBookers and not PayPal?

Yes, you can use just Moneybookers, or just PayPal, or both.

What does a MediaShop Download Link Look Like?

Here's an expired one you can try: http://extensions.lesarbresdesign.info/index.php?option=com_mediashop&task=download&tid=5a9707d13881cea9442ec80bd7f6cd7f&Itemid=83

The link tells MediaShop how to access the purchase transaction, not the actual file. MediaShop will decide if the user can still download the file.

Can MediaShop Control Access to Files on Other Servers?

No, files under the control of MediaShop must be accessible on the same file system as MediaShop.

How Difficult is it to Add Another Payment Gateway?

It's not easy. Each payment gateway works very differently - there are no standards. Supporting a new gateway involves setting up test accounts, which often incurs a fee, learning the API, and then writing and testing the code to handle it.

Everyone seems to want to use a different gateway and the current price of MediaShop would not enable us to recover the investment in more gateways. You should only consider writing the code yourself if you are a very experienced programmer and web developer.
