Usenet block vs subscription accounts

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?

But then don't you end up having to subscribe two or more different providers? Or is there a particular monthly provider that has incredible availability? I have block accounts with three different providers.
