Getting to NYC from Cornell

I have relatives that live in NYC, so I’ve been wondering about this…

The website says there are buses that go to NYC daily, but I’d like to know from the perspectives of Cornell students how convenient this is. After researching prices at ShortLine, I was surprised to see that it costs quite a bit for a round trip fare (~$90). Is there some kind of membership for students, and if so how much does it cost then? Do few students go to NYC on breaks/weekends? Or is car the best way to go?
I’d prefer public transport; it only it weren’t so expensive…
