I have not a single clue what's going on here, because I'm not a designer.. but I like it.

  Adobe and Pantone, a major color designer, have struck a deal where you need to pay additional licensing fees to access a portion of Pantone's color palette in Adobe products[0]. This has made a lot of people, very understandably, quite frustrated, as Adobe products will now replace those Pantone colors with black when you open a project that uses them.

    Nowhere does that citation imply Adobe worked with Pantone to achieve this, but that it was solely Pantone's decision.

  The Pantone colors used to be included with Photoshop. Now you need to pay for an extra subscription to use them, and it's retroactive: if you open any of your old .psd files without the subscription, all of those colors get replaced with black. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33369951 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33369951 has a big discussion about this.

    The perils of service model, normally you'd just be able to use it with older version of their product just fine and only have that feature taken away when you upgrade
