Comment on Epic Games to update Unreal Engine pricing for devs not making games

If you’re using photoshop in a business or hobby capacity, $10/month is a fairly good deal.

I personally use Affinity Photo but I’m not going to pretend that it has feature parity with photoshop.

Paying forever is not a better deal than paying the price of a few months of use and then having it for years. Maybe a business can justify that, but for a hobby? No way.

  Hobbyists CAN and DO get the $10/mo plan. It’s cheaper than most streaming services and if it’s a part of your workflow (as a hobby photographer, for example) then $10/month for a constantly updated software is a good deal.
  
  Like if you don’t value photoshop at $10/month that’s okay but A LOT of people do.

  I just ran into the not forever issue when I had to re-buy Affinity photo to get the newest version.
