[QUOTE="WhiteLight, post: 204543, member: 9556"] About it working for a month, not quite.. Apparently, working off the cloud is more in regards to storage aspect than the actual program ruining it's processes. Once installed, the user would just need to block connections to certain servers which won't allow for access to the internet so anything adobe changes won't really matter... Except of course no updates. But hey the folks who do this make sure a new version of the update is available too.. Regarding the monthly $20, not that people can't afford it. Its just that you are paying for something that you will not ever own.. they can change the exorbitant costs they usually do and allow people who spend their hard earned money to use at will for how ever long they want.. I have friends using CS3 even today and get their job done.. they may not be able to afford every version of cs or don't really care cos what they have is good enough. At the end of the day would you rather pay rent for your house for the rest of your life or OWN your own home? Don't get me wrong PS and most of adobes products are awesome and may even be worth what they used to charge, and there is nothing on this planet yet that can do everything it can, but there is something about doing business where you won't be left with a sour taste in the mouth. People buy really expensive stuff all the time, but they pay knowing that they not being taken for a ride and that at the end of the day they have what they paid for and are free to do what they want with it.. I never had that much of a problem even with the super high costs of adobe products cos they certainly had the class. But being tied to something forever and have nothing to show for it us not good business but a con job. [/QUOTE]
