Digital BW, The Print

This issue of more frequent updates for the cloud version is a bogus one. The cloud version still requires us to download and install updates, just as the older versions would do. So what’s the difference? It’s not like the software is being updated in the cloud on its own.

Let’s say for a moment that Adobe did do something as described above.  Can’t we export images as TIFF files (or DNG) and continue as before in some older version from Adobe or in some 3rd party application?  Most of us have the original images that came from the scan or from a DSLR.  An exported TIFF file would have the processing work “baked in” and TIFF files are standard in the industry.

 

Pay by subscription is the future in software.  The environment grows more and more complex requiring constant patches to remain compatible with the ever changing world.  (For example, mobility, Cloud based apps, tablets replacing PC’s, Create a book in an hour.)  The old model of upgrades every 18 months is not a match for the new world.  

 

Future Shock!
