Originally posted by MJKoski My advice - drop a HBO/Netflix whatever streamer service and replace it with Adobe CC. Nothing changes in terms of cost. It is too funny that people complain about CC pricing and at the time they run 7 different subs elsewhere
It's less amusing if you consider the fact that different people have different priorities, requirements and usage patterns than you, Matti.
Someone in my family watches something on Amazon Prime Video almost every day (certainly every other day), which is more often than I use raw conversion and/or image editing software. Plus, we order items from Amazon most weeks, with fast and free delivery covered by my Prime subscription, which more than pays for itself as a result. If I stopped my Prime subscription, my family would have access to less entertainment, we'd pay for many of our Amazon deliveries and be subject to longer delivery times. If I paid for Adobe CC, there'd be some weeks - even the odd month here and there - where I'd get little or no use from it.
Having used Lightroom 6 extensively in the past, Darktable, RawTherapee and GIMP do just fine for me now. Each to his or her own
