Ok so PS CC is the newest version and it have all functionalities ? Just asking because I am not always up to date.
Is it something that we pay per month, that you never own the software and you always need to be connected ,else it won't work and you won't have acces to your content ?
Part of that's correct. Adobe's moved to a subscription-only model. They say they will no longer be releasing numbered updates, and Creative Cloud (CC) subscribers will always have access to the most recent version. After the existing CS6 stock is sold, they will no longer offer perpetual licensing. I am not sure how the new business model affects their Elements line.Originally Posted by Azelor
You don't need constant Internet connection. The software will dial home once every 30 days to verify a current license, or in the event that you have a situation where you cannot connect (some secure production networks are set up this way), there is another licensing setup, but I'm not sure how it works.
Canceling the subscription means you lose access to anything you've stored in the cloud service itself, but there is no compulsion to store your PSDs in the cloud at all. If the subscription lapses, all of your content remains intact, but you may not be able to read it without renewing the subscription to the software that created it. The PSD document, though, is merely a variant of TIFF, and many programs can at least read it, if not edit it.
The normal price for a new user is $20/month and does not include Lightroom. The entire Creative Cloud (PS, Illustrator, After Effects, Dreamweaver, Premiere, InDesign, and a few other products) is $50/month. I believe all of those prices require a 1-year contract. The prices are, I think, 50% higher without the contract.
