I understand perpetual subscriptions are very good for business, but it's not friendly to long-term consumers as the cost piles up over time and ends up overtaking the original upfront cost if you use it long-term (again, good for business, I understand) many of us have enough bills to pay as it is, so it's very attractive to be able to buy and own outright perpetual access to a creative tool, and just not worry about it anymore. Pay monthly until your total amount paid adds up to the overall upfront cost of the plugin, then you own access to it forever. Splice is, to me at least, the ideal way to do subscription payment plans for creative software. I didn't like it then, and I like it even less now. Am I right in assuming that this whole subscription-based move in the creative industry snowballed from Adobe's decision to go all-in on their creative cloud stuff? That's the very first time I ever saw a creative-tool company go subscription-only.
