Thoughts on Bitcoin as payment?

[Salty]

I've been trying to use it. I downloaded the Bitcoin app and Coinbase app. Didn't realize I only needed one. I can't get Coinbase to work. I confirmed my bank account but every time I try to add money to it, the app just closes. I'm about to give up cause bitcoin uses their own credit card system and there are fees that don't seem spelled out well enough to understand. ugh!
