"Lightroom 6 is the last stand-alone version of Lightroom that can be purchased outside of a Creative Cloud membership. There will not be a Lightroom 7 perpetual offering. Lightroom 6 will remain for sale for an undetermined amount of time, but will no longer be updated with camera support or bug fixes after the end of 2017. Lightroom 6.13 with support for the Nikon D850 will be released on October 26th, 2017"

    Software rentals are becoming the norm among all the

    large software houses.  Even smaller developers are beginning

    to adopt this market model.

    Eventually see the move to total cloud computing and all you have at

    home is nothing more than a fancy terminal.  Going back to the concept

    of main frames and terminals of the 60's and 70's. 

    It's all about control and continuous revenue.
