Digital BW, The Print

Office is still available as a perpetual license, IE you can buy it. So you have a choice, buy or subscribe.
Adobe took away the choice, subscribe only.
Thus the outrage.

The thing I don’t understand is why people are so enraged at Adobe for doing this, but when Microsoft did the same thing with Office 365 I didn’t hear a whimper. And, I suspect there are 100 users of Microsoft Office for every user of Photoshop – if not more.

   I’m talking about big ad agencies, etc. that have a couple dozen licenses.
 
So, because "big ad agencies" like the idea, everybody else should be OK with getting royally screwed?
 
And we haven't even touched on the 1984 aspect. I don't like to be spied on, and I don't like to be controlled.
 
I do not like the idea of Adobe peeking into my hard drive to see if they like what they find there and I will decide if and when I upgrade, thank you very much.
The sheep who are going along with this are selling the rest of us out.
