I just bought a printer and the entire ink system has been switched to encourage/promote a subscription based system. There's no telling what else these vultures are going to try and get on a subscription model in our lifetimes :hhh:

go with tank systems, like epson eco-tank. you just pour the ink directly into the printer, no cartridges.

2k a month :mjlol:

you could own a crazy ass car for less than 2k a month. shyt you'd be better off saving that 2k a month for a year and buying yourself a nice car in cash. that subscription was only for people who give zero fukks about money

Car subscription seemed waaay superfluous. I mean, you really need a different whip that often? :dahell:

I think it's for people who like to lease a new car every couple of months with more money than they know what to do with.

I can't imagine it being a large amount of people but it's something I used to see sometimes on some of the forums when I was more into cars.

For the higher-tier $3,700-a-month fee, they could get M4, M5, or M6 convertibles as well as X5M and X6M SUVs. (BMW’s highest-end 7 Series was not available through the service). The fee included insurance, maintenance, and roadside assistance.

If that seems a bit pricey, you’re not wrong. The top-tier $3,700-a-month plan is almost three times the cost of leasing an M5 sedan in the Nashville area (though a lease requires a down payment of $5,724 and doesn’t include insurance and maintenance).

The numbers don't really mesh to the point I see savings but maybe with insurance being included, lease fees, downpayments, interest...

There has to be a convenience or something I'm not seeing because a 100k car should be a 1-2k a month lease/finance

i aint gonna lie i looked into this because the volvo subscription was intriguing. saw BMW and saw scuts ill just lease the bmw. volvos cars dont excite me enough to want to do something like that. but i never saw how this was going to last for any brand outside of maybe porsche. i could see wanting a 911 and then like damn i really just need this suv for the winter blah blah but even then its tough.

im suprised the BMW one is so expensive i believe the porsche sub is less
