Creative Cloud allows you to purchase a valid license for Adobe products for a reasonable monthly fee. For the first time ever, I have a fully legal copy of Photoshop that I pay $10 a month to use (I still mostly use GIMP and ImageMagick though). More specialized software, like Illustrator, is more than that each month (something like $40/mo iirc), but if you need it for school, you can justify it.
I think Creative Cloud is cool because it actually makes it reasonable to pay for some Adobe software, and you don't have to sink a bunch of time into cracks, activation workarounds, etc. I don't know if it's going to actually be more profitable for Adobe long-term or not, but as a consumer, I'm excited to see them try something new.
