zero demand for a PAID Photoshop? If that's what the study really concluded then it completely failed to take into account current customers who want to switch to linux.
I would love to read more about that study.
- jkrltifk 7y agoMaybe I should have said low exclusive Linux demand. Current customers are already paying, and ditching Photoshop is not a credible threat, at least at the moment.
- jakobmi 7y ago"current customers who would switch to linux". Again, this is 0 incremental revenue but a ton of incremental costs to Adobe.
- vunie 7y agoAdobe moved to a subscription model. They lose revenue as they lose customers.
- closeparen 7y agoIf you need Photoshop, you'll stay on platforms where it's supported. If you don't, you'll probably not pay for it anyway.
- vunie 7y ago> If you need Photoshop, you'll stay on platforms where it's supported. Sure, but your customers will resent you for it and search for alternatives. Vendor lock-in is not a good long term strategy. Competition will eventually catch up. > If you don't, you'll probably not pay for it anyway. This is speculation on your part.
