You can't even just buy Adobe Creative Suite anymore, you must subscribe, and even then it's Adobe CC not a versioned CS3, CS6, or w/e so they can get away with peddling mediocrity for years without the proof of innovation a version-based system requires. Similar deal with Microsoft, I pay them whatever a month for Office 365 because I couldn't figure out how to just buy the office suite. The other day I saw that Office 2016 is out, great, since I'm subscribing that should be pushed to me, right? I spent several minutes attempting to understand when and how I would receive 2016 and then just gave up. Not a very consumer friendly environment, at least for consumers who are trying to be good and pay for their software.
