Yes. That or the educational discount, where Creative Suite is 200 dollars.
I've been hanging on to my copy of cs3 for quite a while, and it only grows less relevant over time. Eventually there will be a different solution, but at this time there simply really isn't any application out there with as battle-tested as a UI as what Photoshop has.
I think most of the sales that they "lose" are the same type of issues that the music industry faces: not a lost sale, just someone trying it out who wouldn't have bought anyway. I've never really seen any institutional or business piracy with Photoshop, just teenagers wanting to use it to mess around.
- jarek 16y agoIt's the same model as with pirating Microsoft Office. Adobe can't say it outright, but they'd much rather the individual users pirate as long as it means Photoshop/CS remains the industry standard, because most businesses will pay for it.
