In BSD it's easier (at least in FreeBSD). Base system is updated quite 
regularly (e.g. after 7.1-RELEASE we had 7.1-RELEASE-p1, 7.1-RELEASE-p2 and so 
on...).  And ports are updated separately and quite often... What is important, 
in FreeBSD we have at least two branches (current, stable and legacy). There 
are much more freedom: I may update to latest patch level, update to next 
release  or to checkout current and get all cool features and new bugs :) And 
here I don't see RELEASE branch (patchsets and upstream), only stale releases 
or permanent CURRENT.
IMHO, what is needed is a subscription below the Basic Support.

Just the package updates, as we can get support etc. here from the community.

I would assume for approx. 20$/year, a lot of enthusiasts would pay for it (I certainly would), while $324 is just too much.
