Title: Yuri Arcurs is back! Microstock superstar opened another account at Adobe Stock
Post by: fotorob on March 25, 2022, 09:30

It has been almost nine years since microstock superstar Yuri Arcurs announced his exclusivity contract with iStock/Getty Images.

However, around December 2021 a new portfolio from "peopleimages.com" (a Yuri Arcurs company) popped up at Adobe Stock:
https://stock.adobe.com/de/contributor/210716081/peopleimages-com (https://stock.adobe.com/de/contributor/210716081/peopleimages-com)

You can read more about it in my blog entry (in German, Google Translate will usually work for English translations):

A bit of a blow to the  perceived value of iS exclusivity. Will be interesting to see if any other "big" exclusives follow suit.

This could be tacked onto the recent similar news thread?

Interesting. The German link on AS doesn't work in English for some reason. Here it is. 100 pages

DT is interesting.

And I'll just add this in case someone wants to look  at his own agency:  https://peopleimages.com/ (https://peopleimages.com/)

Best to him and everyone.
