I found Adobe's subscription was more painful in its execution than what actually is. Back when I had subscription with them, I had to pay monthly but locked to their annual contract, so I had certain period of time I can cancel, and out side of that, they would charge me penalty. I guess they now have prepaid option which works like most of other services these days, that you can essentially pay up front and if you cancel, would continue to end of the term. Actually what worse is ones used by many Japanese services -- where payment date is always 1st of the month regardless of the date you established your contract (so if you start your service on the 31st of the month, they would charge for full month for <1 day of service), and the service deactivates at the moment the service is canceled. (You'll get charged for the full month even if you cancel on the early days of the month, for the full month that you don't have access to the service...)
