So now that that's out of the way, I wanted to share 6 reasons why I think upgrading to Lightroom CC and Lightroom CC Classic is the way to go. It's much easier for someone to scrounge up $10 a month than a few hundred dollars to get up and running legally with a great photo editing platform like Lightroom. The secondary aim was to make their products more affordable in the short term for those wanting to use Adobe's pro-level creative software. I think the main reason Adobe went to a subscription model was to stop piracy and retain revenue. Software piracy is insidious, and although we have a team of people that crack down on it 24/7, it is really damaging to our company and to future development. And I'll tell you why.īut let's start with the reasoning behind the Adobe decision (at least the reason *I* think they did this.) As the founder of a software company, I am all too familiar with software piracy. Why should I have to keep paying for something I own? It was the principle of the matter.īut as the lead product developer here at Mastin Labs (as well as the founder) I need to stay up to date with the newest versions of Lightroom, and so I caved, and bought into the subscription model.Īnd you know what? I couldn't imagine it any other way. When Adobe moved from a standalone software model to subscription-based model, I was PISSED OFF.
