I checked the cost of Photoshop- $600/Year!? That would explain what I read earlier- almost 75% of copies were pirated. I wonder how many of the other 25% are like me- using a legal, but older/obsolete version....

I considered an older version but then just figured hell with it I will just pay for the whole suite. If I don't like the price I will buy it outright and be done with it. As for pirated copies I wish I could it just feels like stealing, because it is. I would worry the whole time it was on my computer.

I remember shelling the money out once. I'm getting my money's worth.

I'll never do SaaS, though (Software as a service). I want to own something, not pay eternal rent....

I agree, I would rather own it outright. The cost is prohibitive. I don't even know which products I really want to use. Marcus Jr. and I want to make some YouTube Videos. I figure I will pay the monthly fee and use them all. If I like them and find I can't live without them I will buy them. This way I will not end up with an expensive software suite I am not fully utilizing.

HEADS UP

So I told you guys these ads were an experiment. They were flagged and removed. I did a little follow up and craigslist does not allow phone numbers or words on pics the way I did it.
