Why do most people seem to go with subscription accounts? I’ve used block accounts for a few years and only have to buy more every 1-2 years. Is there some kind of benefit I’m missing?
It depends on your usage. If you are downloading hundreds of GB per month or more, a block account does not make sense.
Personally I get almost everything off torrents, so I also have some Block accounts which last me many years for the occassional use.
