I renewed because of a few things:
Fear of losing credits.
Fear of forgetting and missing some future deadline.
Fear of anything that would work against me in the future.
I get they have to release it.
And I get they have given the option of not.
And I get they can't know how many games.
But be nice when they DO know how many games, have some discount for those who have not yet renewed, and for those who have some sort of gesture such as food/drink/club site voucher.
Otherwise if not, we all feel a bit short changed. Not the greatest amount in the world, but all adds up and doesn't help their reputation.
