I really think Adobe should start doing the same now, why don't they understand most of its users can't afford $700 softwares.

- mattmaroon 18y agoThe fundamental difference is that Adobe has no competitors who are better. Many people use Linux and various other languages/frameworks not just because they're free, but because they think they are better for what they're doing. That's not true of most Adobe products (except maybe Premier and InDesign). Adobe doesn't have to deal with this. Some people might use GIMP, but just to save a couple bucks. I don't know if there are even substantial competitors to Illustrator. There are weak ones to Acrobat and Flash. Adobe really just doesn't have open source competitors with any shot of eating their lunch. Microsoft does.
