I really tried to read that, but my ad detector kicked in and blanked most of the text. So what is different? The subscription model? For tax, you had to pay every year anyway (what it said on the box, plus once more that much for automatic admission - which wasn't clearly marked on the box as not included); I never bothered with QB... but what's this, I didn't see it in the article - a "put your financial info on the cloud and don't worry"? Or just "it would be much nicer if you paid repeatedly, not just once"?
