Licenses are valid for three years of updates. So, it is a subscription, just a very long one with a fallback version when the subscription ends.

- steve_adams_86 4y agoI can't imagine the Sublime Merge version I have today won't still be super useful once my license expires, so for a lot of people, buying a new copy might not seem particularly compelling. It's also so cheap (or it was when I bought it) that it's waaayyyyy less expensive than any 3 year subscription I've ever seen – something like $2/month.
