Personally I hate monthly payments for things. If it is something I'm going to use I may as well get a bit of a discount and not have yet another payment coming out of my account each month.

Additionally I'm in the UK, so this won't apply everywhere. Some (Many?) bank accounts charge a flat fee on top of the currency conversion rate - again a reason to make just one payment a year.

I am another person that also avoids all monthly payments. Even yearly payments I always disable any recurring fees immediately after sign-up.

I will decide when money comes out of my bank account, how much I am willing to pay, and whether your product is worth the money.. not you. And I'd rather not spend time and energy doing this monthly.
