So the PCGen shill shows up again. So you don't use any online service? (banks, shopping,etc) Because they have your "data" and you aren't in control of it. And OMG someone may hack in and steal all your characters!!111!
I don't really consider the $2/month a subscription, more of a server access/maintenance fee. They need to keep the servers up, and since it is a "niche" market, they don't have a lot of products to sell to keep the servers up and running.
