The Adobe software I own will serve for many years to come so I don’t need to plunk down nearly a thousand bucks to buy the latest “CS6 Suite”. Adobe plans to offer $80/month subscriptions as an alternative to the one big cash hit. Ooooooh, my! No thanks.
Should I ever need to update my graphics software, there are useable open source applications now, available for free. There’s plenty of good “donationware”, too.
