FWIW I have a friend on one of their top level advisory boards. He says they have become nothing but "bean counters".

When the "Bean counters" get involve things can fall apart fast. I'll just have to see if I can find a copy of CS5 or 6 for sale.
It would not surprise me if the shift to a subscription-based service is to capitalize on a program that is largely mature. Photoshop is amazing, but I have a hard time envisioning future developments that significantly alter the program's capacities. If CS3 was 64 bit I would never have purchased CS6, though I would miss the content-aware healing brush.
It reminds me of the academic textbook market. The publishers add a few pages and change/reshuffle quiz questions to perpetuate (astronomically-priced) sales.

Well there could be Photoshop 3D for those new 3d printers.
No, the edits are stored in XMP tags in your files. You can also use external sidecar XMP files for RAW formats that do not allow LR or ACR to embed tags. But usually the files created during scanning film (DNG or TIF or whatever) embed those tags.Originally Posted by Tim Hodgson
Maybe the ratings and whatever are stored in the catalogue, dunno.
bingo.
shareholder driven.
We don''t represent their market any more, we used to have some impact because these companies paid lip service to being part of the arts culture, now it's probably monetarily not worth the effort.
I guess that's OT. I upgraded, not happily, not sure how long I'll stick with it, it's been doing what I need, well, for many versions.
I use several Adobe products - PS, InDesign, Acrobat (with page imposition plug-ins), Premiere, After Effects, Illustrator.
The new model is much cheaper than multiple individual upgrades. The only thing that annoys me is that it's hard to use different products on different systems since I do my video work on a different system than my still work and sometimes use Audition on my notebook.
I don't understand. Isn't that a problem with your setup?

I use CC on Mac Mavericks and Win 8, no issues. And I think the download copy of CS6 also allows you to use 2 computers and 2 OS's if needed.

I too use my CC software on a PC desktop and a Macbook Pro Laptop with no issues.
