I have built up quite a bit of Zen and AD recently due to the way the market jumped and started fluctuating greatly about a week ago.
That said, who cares if someone was willing to simply pay the $100 for the full year subscription vs $10 per month. Same cost, and if you can cover it between money/zen you have accumulated you get more benefit to do so up front and be level 12 from the start vs not until a year from now. Why wouldn't you want the full benefit for the entire year?
And being someone who has come from MMOs such as EQ, that subscription is nothing for all the convenience it will provide me with time and energy saved.

Doh! I meant to give an update to this Yesterday.
I asked Andy (The Community Manager) and his response to me echoed what I said in my initial response. He has not been told whether or not Xbox will get a VIP program but he thinks it is very likely. For now that is all we know.
So you can count the official response as: it is likely to happen but there is no definite answer at this time.
One year would be 10200 zen.. which is $100 for a year.
But if you farmed your AD and converted to Zen, then thats different
Yeah.. that's extremely cheap. If I'm playing a game for a year, I don't mind that at all. Hell if I'm playing a game for a year, it deserves more. I run through $60 games at a very fast rate.
I just wish they'd hurry up and do this. I've wanted this since I saw it for all the shiny reasons (Daily keys, no AH fee, etc.) I've only been playing a month (basically got bored of Destiny but was a D3 player on PC) so this is my first real MMORPG and I've already got the major kits on XB1 but want the daily chances (or probably save them up for one monthly opening) at stuff and I just fundamentally don't like AH fees so I tend to not even use it (I know but it's in my DNA) so that's a bonus from my POV.
I actually was hoping I could buy it through the site for my XB account but I'm guessing by the fact this post is here that is not the case.
