Do you want it enough to not only pay as an upfront price what your lifetime value would have been as a subscription customer, but also cover the difference from other people being unwilling to? A lot of people will subscribe for $50/month for something they'll be using for the next 5 years but won't pay anywhere near $3000 for it. Particularly for work, where smaller monthly purchases are a lot less hassle to make than big once off purchases. It can be the difference between chucking it on the work credit card and having to go through the purchasing people.
