It is still better than it was before, imagine you had to buy Adobe PS as a beginner, or you could just pir.... now you know why subscriptions.



Unfortunately for Adobe products the subscription is for a year, but your point stands. Office used to be hundreds of dollars, now you can start using it for $10/month and it includes cloud storage/syncing.


I pay monthly for adobe. Well I see the invoices that are paid for my subscription. Around €90 per month including VAT.


You pay monthly, but the subscription is for a year - at least in the US.


When they let you pirate, they let you on purpose, it is like an unofficial free trial, with the option to sue you to boot!
