The metrocard machines are easy by that comparison

-Choose your card (get a Regular $10 Metrocard) which will give you 2 Airtrain rides plus 2 subway rides.
- Insert Cash or Credit Card
- get metrocard.

Um, you'll get a 20% bonus, that's $2.00 and that gets you one ride these days on the NYCMTA.

But yeah, it's still a great deal easier than buying the ticket on BART. Of course BART fares are more equitable in that they are charged based on distance, something the NYCMTA would love to be able to do on their subway.
