>>107884710These are no basic apps though, it's legit software you need to run if you work in some sort of video production.
>>107884816>you needBut that is false. There are one time paid alternatives. Making your business rely on a subscription is retarded. Multi billion dollar corps are getting absolutely fucking anally annihilated by rising subscription costs for shit like vmware.Don't fucking do it.
>>107884710All of those apps used to be paid at one time. Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro have never been free.
>>107884816OH its that shit I remove immediately when I get a new phone, do people not debloat thier phones?
>>107884893>There are one time paid alternatives.Those apps still have one-time purchase options.
>>107884710>basic apps getting paywalledExcept they're not. Stop watching faggot YouTubers,
>>107884710The free apps such as Pages, Numbers, Keynote and Freeform aren't going to go subscription-only, they'll still be free for the foreseeable future. The subscription will just give you access to additional premium content and AI features.

>>107884710It will be the year of NPC's getting fucked in the ass. That's as far as I'm taking it.
>>107884893>Making your business rely on a subscription is retarded.Business owner here.Subscriptions are actually great because they don't require upfront investments and they're low risk because you can cancel them.They do tend to be too expensive on the long run but you can always look for alternatives once you build enough revenue.Especially when your own business provides a subscription service you can just pass the cost of your own subscriptions to your costumers and never have to get a loan or take any risk.
