    [Aindreas Gallagher] “Certain businesses may have strong preferences for one or other of those two options – I find it mindbogglingly unlikely that adobe will look to corral 100% of their existing customers, and all the new editors they are about to get, into a subscription service. I think what the guy said to tom is right – they are not in any way discontinuing the current license structure.”

    It would be almost an FCPX strength PR blunder if they did, it is a very simple thing to tell customers, it’s not “giving away” anything to confirm that normal sales will continue. If they are considering subscription only then their customers should be telling them in very loud voices that it’s not acceptable to them.

    The last thing Adobe need to do is throw away all the goodwill they have generated in the last few days.

    sure, but lets give them a break. They just delivered massively for their customers.

    Like I say – i don’t think there is an issue here, and there is no way I am doing a groucho marx walk in circles on the floor thing freaking about it for an entire month….

    Aindreas,

    Well, … they haven’t delivered yet.

    There are probably more recent figures but if you scroll down and look at the chart for Aug 2012, it seems subscriptions are only 20% of current revenue.

    https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20120919006781/en/Adobe-Reports-Quarter-Fiscal-2012-Financial-Results

    I can’t imagine them pushing everyone to subscription until that ratio is lower.

    On the other hand the secrecy around the name (“CS Next” for now?) suggests to me perhaps some sort of rejigging of how the suite is packaged (and sold). But that’s just me.

    look, if they want to call it CSNext and have some exciting marketing allure before launch, let them have at it I say.

    I just want the editing software I do. In my hot little mitts. And AE. And speedgrade. And Audition.

    I will have it allllll please.

    mi opinion is that the cloud attracts new users both individuals and companies that want to try it at a reduced cost.

    Let me clarify my last post. I dont think that the cloud will continue to attrack most new users once they trg it. They will probably get a perpetual lic. but I think companies that have dozens of editors will take to the cloud for the overhead in these operations is huge.

    I wandered over to the premiere thread but they aren’t even talking about the cs7. It is like they have real work to do. Don’t they know better?
    So have they fixed the thumbnail view so you can sort the clips you hover scrub? If they did that, it would be great. It is one of the features I like about fcp x. And the hover scrub in pp is useless to me.

    Adobe have the 40% off NAB cloud special for a couple of more days. Works out at $30 a month for the first year. I run two perpetual licenses (Mac and PC). Just wondering if I should buy a cloud sub now if CS5 is just around the corner.
