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?

    I also wanted too know so I looked it up:

    Usenet “Block Accounts” are accounts where Usenet access is purchased by the gigabyte (GB). For example, a 100 GB block account will allow you to download up to 100 GB of data from a Usenet feed. Most block accounts have no expiration date so you can use them for years. Many people use block accounts as backup accounts to fill in files missing from their main Usenet feed.
