I don't know if this is old news. First I've heard about it...
Adobe Systems Inc. said Monday that it will not release new versions of
its Creative Suite software package. Instead, the maker of Photoshop,
Illustrator and Acrobat, is shifting focus to Creative Cloud, which
makes its software available through a monthly subscription that starts
at $50 for an individual if they sign up for at least a year.
