With all respect Vincent, please re-read it :)

Playchess.com
The aptly named Playchess.com service allows users to sign up for a 30 day free
trial. After the trial you can register for the account, with a price of $38.86
US per year.

Playchess offers a free interface that has audio and video chat, and when live
events are taking place, you can often watch commentators live as well. There
are many titled players on the server, and you also register a computer account.

If you happen to purchase one of the Chessbase products, you get one year of
free service on Playchess free. Programs like Fritz, Junior, Shredder, and
Chessbase 8 give you the one year free on the server.

I see a price there, and an explaination of what purchasing a Chessbase product
will get you, and what the yearly fee is.
