Yea, the Photoshop subscription is just a cost of doing business. We do use it, and with the new Canon professional cameras we use we have to have the latest RAW file import.
Some of the crazy expensive software we use for mapping is a subscription if you want to get the updates and improvements all year long or tech support. If we were stupid and did not renew, after a certain period they just make you buy in from scratch and not the "update" service.
We have on package that is over 35 grand to get going if we let it lapse. One of the other packages we use for some projects is something that you have to talk to tech support directly, then you run a program they send, it produces a code for that computer, and then they can activate that CPU. They are great, but sometimes it is cheaper to pay them to run the project and send up the final file.
