Cloud enthusiasts – something to think about.
-
[Chris Harlan] “But, of course, there is always that interior unknown. Maybe somebody in power has the deeply-held belief that the C Cloud is the only true path for Adobe’s long term survival, “
there is an interesting bit out there on deferred income, what subscriber income could mean to adobe, their current share level, the share trajectory, and the fact that they are over 90% owned by funds.
I think adobe would be incredibly happy to successfully transition large numbers to CC for very good mid term reasons, but yes – I agree too – I think it is incredibly likely that they will market a come hither carrot operation. frankly its half working on me.
I started out in print design, and I have to do a hundred page+ mock fashion magazine as a family favour later this year. Prod.Premium does not indesign have.I think locking out upgrade beyond one cycle is probably enough of a bulwark realistically.
Down the line they could look at altering the make up of the traditional production premium packages. Adobe story for instance, doesn’t fall within the current pack. Although I read script sync will function without it, at some point they could get a little more aggressive in repositioning the cloud rewards.
But the idea that they would risk completely losing the message of CS7 in a forced subscription narrative, the degree of Olympian FUD that would ensue,
no. there is simply no way. They are on the cusp of basically winning the entire production and post game here. From high to low.
not the time for that. later perhaps, but not now.

Editing to music (as a guitarist) is one of my greatest pleasures as well.

Tom, it’s cool. After the X adventure, I will probably never look at a coming product release in the quite same way again.
In the following video montage, which is an extremely accurate portrayal of my expectations prior to the X launch, it is important to note that:
A. I am the whale.
B. Apple is the planet.
C. The improbability odds match exactly with my estimation of X turning out the way it did.
D. The bowl of Petunias represents the entire subset of ex-Autodesk editors who had moved to Apple after that debacle.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCsfHVM5x_I

I just got an email from Adobe about my 1 year subscription being renewed next month, still the same $49.99, nothing about a price increase to $59.

How many threads do we need from Tom about how upset he is with Creative Cloud? Seriously.

Don’t really think this is a fair example. The $75 price gives someone the option to add a seat for a short timeframe. Most services, especially cloud services, give you a discount for a yearly agreement.
This option could come in handy for someone that may just need to add a seat for a specific project.
I really don’t see the cloud vs perpetual any different than renting gear. I am a fan of the cloud but hope they continue to offer perpetual licenses as well.

Doesn’t everyone here favors more licensing options, not fewer?

Strangely enough I have gotten feedback (Twitter and email) from some folks that in essence say, ” The Cloud is the direction Adobe has chosen for the future. Just accept it and stop complaining.”
