Gotta love DRM that makes paid versions of games worse than pirated stuff.

I'm honestly shocked Adobe hasn't tried to capitalize on the people who pirate from them, considering they're the one company where the service is good and the cost is not

Do you know how much they'd take in if they had a yet cheaper tier for certain apps with a 'personal use only' clause or something? Probably a fuck ton if i had to guess

I know right. The fuck should I pay 10/mo to use Lightroom as a hobby photographer who will never make a dime off my images? 25-50/yr and I would never even look at the alternatives.

The free hobby license for fusion 360 means I am sort of locked in to auto desk CAD software because it is all I have used for years now. Big win right?

In a way they did, the base Photography plan is ridiculously good value. PS + LR for US$120 a year. It'd have cost me more to buy both outright back then (US$800 + US$400 upgrades every 2-3 years).
