No, all apps are available for purchase for a one time payment.
I don't care about video, so I'll be buying Pixelmator now, and maybe music stuff later, and Video part never.
So it works like before, if you want.
- bearjaws 10mo agoAvailable for purchase... for now.
- bayindirh 10mo agoThe only "...for now" event I have seen in last 20 years of Apple software is iWorks and Mac OS X become free. ...and they integrated some of the Aperture to new Photos app, which is again was a transition to free. Name me something a product, not a service which you can only subscribe in Apple's ecosystem.
- arvinsim 10mo agoLogic Pro in iPad is subscription only.
- asimpletune 10mo agoThey didn’t take away a one-time purchase option for it though. It just never existed to begin with so the op’s point remains.
- ascagnel_ 10mo ago> Name me something a product, not a service which you can only subscribe in Apple's ecosystem. The shows on Apple TV are only available via a subscription; there's no way to have a perpetual purchase (at least as far as that a la carte style of purchase is perpetual).
- dagmx 10mo agoThey specifically said “not a service” and you brought up a service.
- ascagnel_ 10mo agoI would argue a season or episode of television is a product, and Apple TV gates them behind a subscription. I used to buy the season passes so I could return to shows later; that's not an option for ATV stuff.
- andrei_says_ 10mo agoPixelmator is great and integrates well with Apple's tooling for batch processing. For video, the free version of DavinciResolve goes a very long way, and their Studio is a single-payment-life-time license.
- lynndotpy 10mo agoDaVinci Resolve also runs on Linux, so you won't be locked to staying on MacOS if you want to switch OSes but maintain your skillset.
