Affinity hands-down has the most attractive pricing scheme I've seen for its class of software. I have no doubt it isn't worth every penny. I prefer supporting Free Software like GIMP and Inkscape when possible, but there are some things that Photoshop does much better, and some of these things were absent in my evaluation of Affinity Photo. The only software I've found to have a better pricing overall scheme is the Substance suite. $20 a month rent-to-own, and you can "buy" individual programs from the suite with this strategy one at a time instead of all at once, in case you want to secure ownership of a particular program. It's an incredible business model for software.
