About that....

So, LiveJournal is having a paid account sale right now, but the "sale price" for a year's price is $20, as opposed to their "normal price of $25." But wasn't their normal year-long price $20 like, yesterday?

I've been considering getting a paid account for a while now (MUST HAVE MORE ICONS), and I guess now might be a good time?


EDIT: Mmmmkay, I apparently can't read. What exactly is the difference between a recurring payment and a one-time payment? You still have to pay every year. I don't get it.

A recurring payment means you set up an ongoing account, and authorize them to bill your credit card every year on the due date. It's pretty common on web sites these days.

I'm guessing that you get a better rate for setting up recurring payments vs. one-time pay, because you're more likely to stay a long-term subscriber if you don't actually have to do anything to resubscribe. This, in turn, gives the site more long-term stability if they can assume that a good percentage of their paid users will continue paying.
