So far, it looks to be comparatively cheap in the short run, you get *everything* for the price of one program over the course of a year's subscription, and you can shut the valve off whenever you want.Quote:

I have CC through work, and there's just not enough in the recent versions of apps to convince me that going that route is actually better than owning CS6. Having the latest and greatest is nice, but, I don't know - I feel like it's still be a while before I'd feel like I was really missing out.
I've had few problems with the DRM stuff, but to be fair, I haven't been in many situations where I was away from an Internet connection for an extended period of time.
I think the real test for me is going to be how it handles deadlines, and if things are down to the wire is it going to do what it's supposed to. That's really all that matters, I'm not super-worried about being in a tree with a laptop and unable to get Adobe Lightroom to work or something.
Completely agree. I've been on an older version for a long while and still don't feel like I'm running a digital dinosaur. I honestly wouldn't even complain if Adobe hadn't pulled distribution of CS6 as an option. Of course it's logical for them to do so, but it doesn't make it any less scummy.Quote:

A legit copy of the full CS6 suite is currently $2,550.00, soooo yeah. Subscription will either be a stop-gap to that or ???
On the plus side, it's a writeoff! Running bootlegs while doing design business is fine to a point, but being up on modern stuff might be nice.
I don't know what X-Out is but I want it just based on that cover art.

which worked great for the leaser until everything went tits up and they repoed a ton of tractors that they couldn't release nor make money to pay off their own loans.
