I get 7.33$ in my Micropay, I want to use them to buy a 11$ book, not wait for Micropay or purchase more Micropay with Paypal and such...

I can see not wanting to be locked into a bookstore, but I like Fictionwise's support for DRM-free content. When I realized how much money I was going to be spending on e-books, I went ahead and paid for a club membership, then have mostly spent non-Micropay there in >$200 batches for the additional 15% micropay rebate. That seems to leave me with an about $50-$70 micropay balance I can slowly drain down -- and prevents that whole "not enough micropay to actually buy anything" problem :-).
