    Just saw this tweet in a Lifehacker article:

    ''Adobe is raising the price of a single CC subscription from $39.99 a month (already incredible) to $48.99 a month (genuinely ridiculous). How much longer is the software-as-a-service scam going to continue before we reject it''

    SO, Adobe is raising the CC price from 40$USD to 50$USD /Month or from 53$CAD to 66$CAD

    No comments.

    • How much do you think is a fair price for so many tools? $1 a month? or $0?

      Ppl will never stop complaining.

    • Adobe is made for you NBQ, if you're ready to pay any price just because "you have so many tools"Bennn
    • https://affinity.ser… No subscription. €54.99api
    • I will probably jump on something like Affinity if my ''fixed'' version of CS6 ever stop working.Bennn
    • it's been $50USD a month for many years alreadymonospaced
    • But i will never subscribe to CC again thats for sure. I'm not using it enough and I dont make money out of it.Bennn
    • It would be a non-sense to me to send 800$/year to a multi-billion$ company just for fun.Bennn
    • Problem is they will never do an a la carteHayoth
    • then you don't need the softwaremonospaced
    • It's mot the $50 thats bad, its that everything is now $50 subscrip or more a month.Hayoth

    • I am not sure what the problem is. I used to pay thousands to upgrade, now it's $600/yr. Pennies compared to many SaaS.formed
    • careful, formed... you sound reasonable and lack bitterness... you may want to slow down there, //moneybags.PonyBoy
    • i compare it to putting petrol in your car - you need it for A>B pay for it - yes they gouge you but if you cant do it - get a bike = opensource_me_
    • Why are you complaining? You're not paying for it! Lolpango
    • Once its up, I'm out for alt ways cos this trend will never end with only one sub service.helloeatbreathedrive
    • You can download all the old versions for free. https://www.adobe.co…Raybandana
    • I'm getting hit by every which way, cancelling mine & going alts or earlier or better ahoy the latest, already found them, scanned and tested. Work just as goodhelloeatbreathedrive
    • How come there is no good alternative for adobe? No real competition compare to audio, video editing or 3D software.ApeRobot
    • i tried krita and gimp, utter shit software.ApeRobot
    • ^true, solution is free earlier versions? or pirated latest, either way enough renting.helloeatbreathedrive
    • Bring back Freehand!faxion
    • alternative choices (and free) for AE/PR: natron.fr (for comp+mograph) and davinci resolve for editing+grading (free version has 1080p res limit)seldon
    • I haven't used affinity, but when our studio uses something like sketch we just have never-ending issues with client adoption. If someone could make a script...ben_
    • that could convert files to work between the softwares that would be worth $50/month.ben_
    • @Bennn
      That gig on freelancer.com would have payed for your monthly subscription.
