Everyone I've talked to wanted a slight pricing model change with JetBrains, myself included, but nobody wanted a subscription service.
It is just that, often you find yourself wanting PHPStorm, and PyCharms, but that's it. A simple buy one-full-price-half-off-second scheme would have got people like me to say, "yeah sure, let's buy up PyCharms this weekend. Why not?"

Or you can buy PHPStorm+PyCharm for ($7.90+$7.90) = $15.80 So, under the new model, it's still cheaper to just buy two full-price licenses. There's no discount for the 2nd product.
