    tom daigon posted this over on the PPro forum.

    still if this bugs you a bit – maybe spread it around? signatures are coming onto a thousand. If you don’t like the end of perpetual licenses, ten or twenty thousand signatures might get them some decently bad press and actually mess up the PR push out of MAX – lo – may the FUD spread.

    Some FUD might not be too bad . what would be really nice would be to retard CC adoption as much as humanly possible with negative community feedback on the company and poor reactions online to the money grab subscription. Or maybe it will make absolutely no difference at all. the FCPX petition got quite a bit of play in the press and online mind you. Heartless company throws loyal users overboard… that one did stick on apple in retrospect.

    Here it would be profit crazed company (with elderly product suite running out of steam) starts foaming at the mouth, forces entire user base onto perpetual loan hire rental subscriptions, CEO replies “creative cloud” to all questions, rubs hundred dollar bills all over his face and chest. makes strange guttural noises?

    I signed it. I see it’s got over a thousand signatures so far.
