I am going to guess that most buy small quantities of most every thing rather than bulk in spite of the fact that buying in bulk will save you money.
The difference is that my Stava subscription isn't perishable, and doesn't go rancid after sitting around for 12 months. I tend to buy things in the largest quantity that makes economical sense for the rate at which it gets used, as well as factors like storage space. Paying monthly - and costing me more than 2x as much - for a service that I use all year long, multiple times per week, just doesn't make much sense to me.

If you don't like how they do business, don't use the product. Your choice.
