[quote name='Microshock']The 3 month plan is 24.99 though. Some people don't need to buy a year because of differing circumstances. For example, I leave in August for training to the Army, so I don't need to buy a year, i can only buy 3 months or so.[/QUOTE]
A little off topic, but if you're not in it already, I'd recommend joining Bing rewards. It's a little slow to earn points, but not too much of a pain and they offer 1 month gold subscriptions now.
