A question about LIVE

Hi, I am going to buy LIVE for halo 3 (which means today since it's released tomorow) But I just wondered if anyone could help me with a question I had before I buy it.

After I have bought it and my 12 months is over will Microsoft automatically charge the credit card again for another 12 months or will I have to buy LIVE again?

yeah, it automatically charges another year if you don't cancel it. (and will keep doing so untill you cancel it, so be sure to cancel it when you're doneor years from now you'll still be paying it.)

i'd just buy one of the cards.. but if you're just buying your system now, you dont need it yet. every system comes with a free month of live.

Thanks. I will just buy it now and not bother with the cards seeing as I have already used my free trial but I will be sure to cancel it when I have no need for it.

Question, how easy/difficult is it to cancel the subscription?

Question #1: Can Live Gold cards be purchased mail-order?

Question #2 (to the OP): Is there a 7-Eleven near where you live? Live Gold cards can be had from more places than you think: including 7-Elevens.
