Bye Adobe

Thanks for pushing me over the edge Adobe. I will be looking to replace all of my Adobe products with a competitors now. If I can not own my software then I am not using it!!! My wife still uses my Copy of Photoshop 7 at home. You think I am going to keep paying you to use your software for years on all of my machines at home! NO! Going back to Quark for page layout, Final cut for video, Articulate for my training, Corel Draw for Vector work, HTML5 for Web, and more.

I still have a copy of Photoshop 3. If the creative cloud were around back them. I would have had to pay Adobe constantly from 1994 till now to use Photoshop.

Incase you do not know, a lot of creative people who use your software do not have a lot of money. Ever heard of the term Starving Artist.  Bye Adobe. A former loyal customer for 20 years.

I completley agree with everything said here - it is absolutely disgusting what Adobe have done - I have been a loyal customer for 15 years and I am not buying anything from Adobe again until they change this unethical Creative Cloud!

They plan to raise prices and said in their stock statement FORM 10-K "...thereby driving higher average revenue per user. Additionally, our shift to a subscription model will increase the amount of our recurring revenue that is ratably reported."  Nothing more - nothing less. They currently have a monopoly and don't care what we think. They are even mater of fact telling us. "Deal with it!" I HATE ADOBE! I don't want to see their namer anymore than I have to.

I hope that someone will make Adobe's decision makers have a look at all the topics regarding CC in this forum!

Don't waste your breath what's needed is to move this topic to Facebook. That is the only way companies like Adobe listen to anyone.  if all the people that have expressed a negative opinion, do so. Then adobe would listen.
