>never mind my instinctive aversion to recurring billing.

That's not an argument. Another can even have an "instictive aversion" to paying up-front.

I think there's a real correlation between "uses recurring billing" and "scummy".

Why you'd say that? I have reccuring billing for several services, like Dropbox, Linode, Digital Ocean, AWS, auto-domain renewals, some subscriptions to digital content, etc.

It's not only illegitimate businesses use recurring billing!
