Diaper Service vs. Purchasing

Hello, I am new here. I am very newly pregnant, and am quite interested in CD. Are there any views on which is easier/more effective between purchasing diapers vs getting a service? Sorry if this has been asked before, and I appreciate any advice.

Re: Diaper Service vs. Purchasing
I used a service to get my feet wet and to buy time to stock up on CD and it was the same price as buying 7th Gen disposables.
I agree with PP about buying your own. I might just do a service the whole time if I had more money than time or was grossed out by the laundromat and/or handwashing (I live in an apt with no hook-ups).
I use a service and probably always will. It just works for our family. It's $75/month. They drop off prefolds and a liner and provided the pail and deodorizer disk (monthly). We use mostly Blueberry covers. We use disposables at night and occasionally when we're out an about or traveling.
