Well, there is one way to sort of protect yourself from a company going
bankrupt on you:  you can pay for it with MASTERCARD or VISA.  There is
a problem with this, however:  you should be careful because telephone
orders don't need to have your signature.  This isn't too bad a problem,
because the card companies almost always take care of it.  The card companies,
in general, are pretty moby, because they make lot of money in this business.
If someone tries to screw with them, they usually end up losing big.  The
best thing to do is get in touch with a card-company rep and ask him
what your rights and protections are.
