Last time Paypal made a fuss, it seemed to be because someone was collecting donations for a charitable cause while not being an officially registered charity, so my impression was they don't allow that due to the high potential for fraud, but someone collecting donations for themselves was OK.
As a reader, I think for serials the model you mention works best. Posting only if you get donations would only work if you have a sizeable audience already, but the chance of an extra episode is an incentive that just a tip jar and a regular schedule don't provide.
