So your reasoning is pretty illogical and really makes no sense. And even if the ceo was completely retarded, drunk and high and decided to just make photoshop disappear from their company, you can easily get it other ways at that point. The service of the new company may be shit but the software would still work. so what? They would take over the company and it's products, nothing would change about the software you already have, they are buying the company purely because of the software, and considering just how big a company would have to be to buy adobe says they know what they're doing and won't change what works. So them going bankrupt isn't even a possibility right now. Photoshop is even a household name at this point, everyone knows what it is. But I'm in the natural sciences program and I still think it was a worthy investment.Īdobe isn't going to go bankrupt, they are #1 in their field and they don't have any real competitors. I mean, fonts are expensive, and it's hard to find good free ones that I liked, so TypeKit has been a great and reliable way to make sure the look and feel of my work is just right. Plus they all play really nice together and I don't have to worry about my campus network messing with my work.Īnother bonus is TypeKit, which gives you access to a ton of fonts that you're licensed to use through the program. I initially bought just Lightroom for basic image editing, but after buying the full CC package I realized that being able to work between all of the adobe programs on one computer without having to hoof it to a campus lab (or use the dreaded remote desktop. I think I've used every major program available (Dw, Br, Pr, Ps, Id, Ai, Lr, and Acrobat Pro) and it's great to be able to try them out under the same license and see what I like and don't like.

Just having the access to all of the adobe products is great when purchasing the whole CC set. But it was totally worth the purchase and I plan to renew again while I still have my student discount.

I don't use it daily, nor am I even in a major relating to graphic design/art/photography. I caved and purchased the whole CC suite (1yr subscription) with the student discount.
