I pay $50 a month for the full CC suite and have zero complaints.

does it still include Bridge/ACR?I'm def interested as I'm on CS5 and for an annual fee of $120 this is a great deal to get PS, ACR and LR. I'm looking for the catch, but we're all going to be forced into CC at some point so we should take this olive branch now, right?

des Bridge & ACR.The catch is only that if you stop paying sometime down the road, you'd better not need to access any of the intermediate files that you saved. Unless you start paying for CC again, but then you'd have to pay a higher monthly fee (since if you stop once, the deal is done).

Even if you do what many of us do: upgrade every other year, it's not much of a price change.

Or save as tif (or jpg).
Nope, that doesn't work if you want to go back and tweak your edits later. Unless you save a layered tif, which is much larger than a .psd (and may still be missing some of the edit info).

Unless you save a layered tif, which is much larger than a .psd (and may still be missing some of the edit info).often though, if you go back, say a year later, your style and way of doing things has changed enough to warrant starting the edit from scratch.
That's a good point. I've re-edited a few files recently from 2-3 years ago and found that I do a MUCH better job now. The idea of not being able to tweak existing edits still worries me, but perhaps it's unlikely to ever actually come up (at a time after I've given up the subscription). Still undecided, though.
hi does it mean lightroom and photoshop will only be available through online? not sure how is work, it is like you have to access internet to use the program?it won't take up your hd storage?

The only differences are that you pay monthly for the software rather than buying a license for a one-time fee; and that the software had to be online for a once-a-month checkin with Adobe to verify that you're still subscribed. Otherwise it's the same software that works the same way.
so it means I still have to use the computer I had installed lightroom and photoshop?
i got a new laptop in my office, and i am thinking of editing some photos in office laptop as well. How I can manage the lightroom in two computer? i put my raw files on a portable drive, but how can I sychronise the lightroom while using two different computer for portable drive of photos?
