A buddy of mine, who was on for the final beta phase, has a suggestion about using pre-paid cards for the subscription as well. Namely because he doesn't have a credit card. Though often buys the cards from gamestop and such for PSN cards. Maybe working out a deal for the same type for the subscription here? Not all purchases on the store read completely. Any ways, if it's been suggested before or not, I'm unsure. Haven't really been on the forum as I've been busy with the game itself. :P
