C'mon, guys, that idea of MS and Adobe as well as others who hopped onboard that money train was just disgusting, and you know it:
Selling their software not as an offline package anymore, software that you owned after you bought it, but forcing you to pay for it year after year again and again and call it a "subscription" costing you more than you would have ever agreed to pay offline??
And telling us at the same time that being able to work from anywhere anytime is heavenly bliss?
Not, it isn't, that concept of forcing a huge community into dependence is not only vile but it is also neglecting the fact that there are millions of people in the world that are not as "fortunate" and who cannot go online anytime they want (or are forced to). And listen: Maybe they don't even WANT to go online anytime anywhere and work in that "desired" space called the cloud.
MS and Adobe starting to force their customers into subscriptions is what made me decide to switch to linux for good.
Guess how old I am, and I'm happy not having to believe everything that's forced into our brains anymore.
