Re: No more Creative Suite - only Creative Cloud.^*%*$*^*&^%!
From my perspective as a retired senior on a fixed income, that really sucks! After the introductory price runs out, that's going to double my costs. I have no need for everything in the Creative Suite, I have Production Premium CS6 which has everything I need. And, with no perpetual license, when it gets to the point that I no longer want (or won't be able to pay) the subscription, it will stop working and I'll have to revert back to the last boxed version I have.
Re: No more Creative Suite - only Creative Cloud.Can't write what I'd like to say.
I never needed all the programs in the Creative Suite so I stuck with upgrading individual programs. Next Adobe will do away with them, no doubt. Lenovo W70l; 1.6 GHz, i7 quad core, Win 7, 64 bit, 16 gigs DDR-3 RAM; NVIDIA Quadro FX 2800; Two 1T 7200 internal drives; BluRay burner
Re: No more Creative Suite - only Creative Cloud.Wow! Glad I upgraded my PrPro & AE to CS6 in December. I have PS CS5. Maybe it is time to hang up the editing.

Re: No more Creative Suite - only Creative Cloud.Looks like I will just stick with CS5. I have always felt that the CS Cloud was a slow bleed. No thank you.

Re: No more Creative Suite - only Creative Cloud.Well, guys and gals, it's all changing and the pace is accelerating.
I am sitting on my (only, now) home PC, but just because I turned it on to bring up Quicken and write some checks. Otherwise my PC now stays off for days at a time. Granted that if I was actively doing video editing I would of course be on the PC more, but I still haven't gotten that back on track yet. I have been thinking about a new PC lately. Last time I bought a PC was (I can't believe it) five years ago. At that point, I had a "daily" PC, and a quad core I got for video editing. A few years ago the daily PC went belly-up and I consolidated all on the video PC. I intended to get a new video PC but dragged my heels. Now I am not sure sure I am ever going to buy one. I would be interested in the division of computation between the "cloud" and the local PC with the new Adobe cloud software. If the shift occurs as I think, there will be more and more of the actual computation done in the cloud and the PC will be relegated to just a dumb display. (I worked on dumb displays (3270) at IBM for years.) You will end up uploading your video into the cloud (or maybe the camera will automatically do it via wi-fi) and then what you do/see on your screen becomes just the front end for some computational engine distributed in the cloud. With that division of labor, you could use any device to do your video editing, even a tablet. I am sure that would appeal to Adobe - the same software (or interface in this case) for PCs, MACs, laptops, tablets, smartphones, Linux, etc. etc. Next is the implant in your brain. Can't wait!

Re: No more Creative Suite - only Creative Cloud.Another article:
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424127887323826804578466830054806110.html $600 per year is too rich for me. I guess Adobe will be losing me as a customer. Now I find myself wondering if there will be another Premiere Elements?

Re: No more Creative Suite - only Creative Cloud.Looks like you've got to be a subscriber to view, Paz. I wonder the same thing about Premiere Elements. I'm not thrilled with any of this. If Adobe makes this work you can bet that other companies will be following suit.

Re: No more Creative Suite - only Creative Cloud.Maybe box copies CS 6 programs will go up in value for people who want to own? I may be sitting on a very good investment.

Re: No more Creative Suite - only Creative Cloud.
It's not "in the cloud" computing, all the computing is done locally on your computer just like it always has. The Cloud is the distribution mechanism. Applications are installed via the Adobe Application manager. Once installed, you can be disconnected from the internet and still use the software, but you will need to connect to the Internet once every 30 days for the software to verify the subscription is still active.

Re: No more Creative Suite - only Creative Cloud.
Bob, the following is a post by Angry Man on the link supplied by the OP above.
Is it correct that, if one has only older boxed versions of software, then one won't be able to access creations that have been made by newer versions if one cannot to pay monthly?

Re: No more Creative Suite - only Creative Cloud.
Yes, and No. It depends on what you mean by access. If you mean be able to open the original creation's project and re-edit or tweak, the answer is probably yes, it's true. For applications like Premiere Pro that have a project file, the project file format may change between versions. If the project file format has changed, you won't be able to open the project in an earlier version. If the file format has not changed between versions, it may be possible to be opened, but features you use that exist only in the newer version won't be recognized. However, once you've finished a project, you typically export it to a standard video format. You will always be able to access that. And, many people won't even retain the project file. For applications like Photoshop where the project takes the form of a PDF or TIFF file, it's very likely you will be able to open it. If you use layer types not implemented in the older version, the older version won't know what to do with them. If you enabled maximum compatibility, there will be a flattened image layer embedded in the file which some programs can access and extract. But, the best thing to do is to flatten the final image and save it as any standard image format. You can keep the original layered file, but recognize that it will have a limited useful life span. The lesson here is don't rely on the project files to last forever. Save out the finished project in a standard format and you will always have access to the fruits of your labor.
