It appears Adobe has forgotten who their clients are for their Elements products. Its the occational user. This new subscription model of theirs is nothing more than a money grab. I use Photoshop Elements 15 and was going to upgrade until I saw it was only for a 3 year term and after that it will stop functioning. i only use it probably 15 times a year. When I need it I need it, paying $70 every 3 years for a product I occational use is absurd.
I plan on using Photoshop Elements 15 until the OS no longer supports it and I'll be looking at Gimp or Corel Draw. Its time to send these corporations a message. Right now with all the subscription plans I have I have to spend $600 per year just to use my computer. I need to cut costs. Finding alternatives may not be easy but I'm willing to learn. Quicken wants $90 per year for their product, I create a different account every year just so I can get it at $50. Same product different costs.
Boycott these pricing models. Its the only way to send these companies a message.
