A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

Depends on what it is I'm purchasing and the cost of the subscription vs the cost of a one time purchase. Also, depends on if it's a true one time purchase or something along the lines of those "lifetime subscription" one time charges that never seem to actually last z lifetime.
I prefer keeping as much of my income available as possible and then decide when and where to spend it, rather than having most of it tied up in monthly rates. More liquidity=more flexibility
The day has not come that I've found a subscription worth the monthly rate. A little off topic, but I even pay a bit more for my Internet bill so I can dump its ass on a whim if I like, and I use that daily (hourly). Canada has SUPER predatory telecoms, keeps them honest
I make made my telecom choices specifically avoiding the big three and their subsidiaries. Has served me well so far.
Yeah I was with Shaw before they got monopolized now I'm trying to eek my way out of Rogers (they've been kindly upping my bill monthly the last 3 months)
The best thing that ever happened to me cell phone-wise was Shaw being forced to sell Freedom. I've been with Freedom since they were Wind, and the only good thing that the Shaw ownership ever did was leave existing contract prices alone. I would have been extremely unhappy if Rogers had gotten their hands in Freedom.
