This doesn’t surprise me. I abhor all subscriptions. I’ll pay for things once, upfront, but I’d rather do without than have continuous payments.
- Gigachad 3y agoThese days I avoid upfront payments unless you come out ahead within a year. I don't want to buy something that takes 5 years to be cheaper than the yearly payments. I have no idea if I'm going to want this thing for x years, most of the time I don't end up getting good value from upfront payments. With subscriptions I can just cancel and move to the best option at the time.
