Heh, perhaps I'm just too thrifty :).  My main hobbies are volleyball
and reading.  Volleyball is very cheap since all I have to buy is
a ball and kneepads every couple years.  Books are pretty inexpensive
for the hours of enjoyment and libraries are free.  Books can be loaned
to friends when your done too.

Oh well.  I was looking for reasons why people pay the PBM fees and I
got some good answers.
