Adobe Typekit is one of the excellent subscription font services out there. Why use Typekit, though, when there are free fonts provided by Google? I don't want to say that you get what you pay for with Google, because I think that Google's fonts are very high quality and a very large selection, but I think that the selection and quality of fonts on Typekit is outstanding as well. However, the best feature, in my opinion, is that this font service is free to all Adobe Creative Cloud subscribers. So if you have subscribed to the Creative Cloud suite for tools such as Photoshop and Illustrator, you have access to every font on Typekit as well. If you're not a subscriber to the Adobe Creative Cloud, you can subscribe to just Typekit as well and that's totally worth it. Another cool thing is that you can very easily sync fonts to Photoshop and Illustrator...
