title: PayPal subscription vs recurring?
body: <p>Can someone explain the difference between the two? From what I have read, subscription is the one where you grab the HTML button from PayPal, whereas recurring is done via the API.</p>
  
  <p>Is that it or is there more to it?</p>
  
  <p>If so, how do subscription customers cancel their subscription?</p>
  
  <p><sup>(And, <em>why</em> does PayPal make it so developers have to trawl forums for answers?!)</sup></p>
