Adobe CC Subscriptions

>>252608
My student job gives it to me for free... Probably one of the best things about the job, saves me 90 bucks a month.

But probably wouldn't start paying for CC if I didn't have that.

never had an older license before university, got sick of pirating across new computers or OSs, use 3+ adobe programs regularly. $20/month for students too so

the only thing I care about losing is my font/graphics/brush libraries -- does paying for cc allow for me to put a lock on these libraries at long last?


I've never paid, nor do think i ever will, but if I had every font i had dl'ed since 15 at my fingertips all of a sudden I would be a very happy and very overwhelmed man.

I do.

Simple, really. CC is better and more stable than older versions, at least in my anecdotal experience, and I like the new shit they add from time to time.

Granted, I have a fake student email address so it's like $17/month.

My boss pays for it and desu it's worth it if you use InDesign/Photoshop/Illustrator/Premiere/After Effects to the fullest extent.
If you're only le photo shop man then sorry.

The only three reasons to use older versions are:
• Pixel Bender compatibility
• Older plugin compatibility
• You actually own the software

However, the minus parts are:
• You miss out on the cool new program specific features (granted, there's a lot of useless shit too)
• No Typekit
• No libraries etc
• File format incompatibility:
• • Photoshop CC 2015 files still do open in CS3 BUT there's loss and you aren't told what you're missing.
• • Illustrator is really good at opening new stuff, there's some loss but nothing major.
• • After Effects and Premiere don't cooperate unless you manually hex edit the files.
• • InDesign is the real bitch. Won't open anything done with newer versions unless you IDML that shit.

Idort is the way to go. Get a cheap CS5.5 Master Collection and subscribe to Creative Cock. If shit hits the fan you still got the best there is.
