Painting Cedar Siding

So, 3 years ago I have this guy come to my house and his guys sand here and there and touch up all over the place.

A year later, paint is falling off in a lot of places. This time I pay the guy a bunch of money to "paint" my house. A year later, a dark mold is growing all over the place on the outside. I call the guy. No problem he says, we'll spray it off. They spray it. Paint falls off in too many places for me to be happy.

I say "what is the deal ?" He proceeds to tell me that he stained over the existing stain that was on my house, but that staining is not a very good idea (?). He then tells me that for a bunch of money, he can paint (actual paint) my house with some new magic paint that stays on forever and has some very long warranty, etc.

In the meantime, I sit with a house with paint chipping off of it, and I am not (understandably) happy with this guy. However, I know do not know what to do. If it is painted, will the paint come off just as readily, bcz of the underlying stain ? Am I doomed ?

I don't know if I'll cry, I don't know if I'll die.........laughin'
