The initial $29.95 membership is only part of the total lifetime value of the customer. CCBill programs tend to only pay 50-60% of that. Also cheap/free trials convert differently than full monthlies.

Everyone is free to push whoever they want, but I make more sending my traffic to the people that pay a lot for it up front. If worrying about using a third party for payments was an issue, I wouldn't send them any traffic to begin with.
