They trap you into an upgrade scam. If you buy the full premium suites you have to upgrade the whole suite every time you decide to upgrade something.
I just attempted to upgrade Illustrator since that's all I needed. No notification was on the site and it let the purchase go through fine. I had to call in to find out why it wouldn't accept my serial numbers.
I don't pirate software but I'm beginning to understand why some do. Unhealthy business practices by corporations breeds this type of action.

Honestly the base of adobe products has been the same since 1997.
The just add a couple useless features and re-skin it.
Everyone's caught up in the game.- I disagree. The improvement for video/Flash/web are tremendous in CS4.dMullins

Yup
and then they get all surprised when a few people pirate a home copy to do some evening freelance work! Seriously, screw 'em! Big ad/design agencies should buy the software.. not individuals who're forking outta their own pocket. Well I guess they do take the fact that everyone's got a pirate copy at home into account when they price their products
