I don’t know the name of the practice. But I already do the buy for just 1 month thing when they’ve got something I really wanna watch.

Right now I’m waiting for Bleach to finish so I can get a month of Hulu so I can watch that and the new Futurama.

They don’t deserve a concurrent monthly payment. And I’m happy as hell to deny one to them.

I thought that was exploiting credit card/savings account rewards by bouncing from card to card, as in /r/churning.
