A lot of the companies I freelance for would love to switch over so they'll always be at the latest versions of software and will have access to everything in the Adobe catalog on all machines but as far as I know Adobe won't let them in on the deal!

They have corp rates now, $60 a seat.
I think the problem is a lot of of people don't upgrade with every version, they skip, meaning they did 2, 4 and 6 or 3 and 5 and are waiting for 7 because the suites are pretty pricy.
I personally have installed and use 4, 5 and 6 simply because the newer versions tend to get bloated and do **** that I don't like so for simple things I usually opt to use 4 unless I need a feature from one of the newer versions.
The other thing this does is totally screws everyone on the backwards compatibility issue.
You could always count on going a couple of years before being forced into an upgrade because the adoption rate for new versions was not all that fast.
But once adoption rate hit a certain point you had no choice because files you were getting from outside sources were newer versions and you could not work with them.
This updating at will is going to create a mess.
