Being a grandpa is more fun than working
I received a long survey from Adobe today. I'm wondering if it's due to genuine concern, or damage control?

I didn't get anything, but I don't have an Adobe ID. It wasn't required up until CS5 and that's the last version that I have.
I'll check with my sis and mom, they both are running CS6 programs. I'll see if they got anything.

If it were only that easy...
But at any rate, it appears they're quite intent on digging deep into the minds of users to see what we really think of the CC vs CS. It should be interesting to see what comes of it.

On one hand adobe reported success with their CC model.
On the other hand Adobe reported a "diluted" earnings report.
Operational costs have been reduced.
Lifetime members has grown to over 1 million, However, this is the easy pickings because the CC for this group makes financial sense.
Adobe says this is the plan. Short term loses but higher profits after the long term.
For the rest of the users it is said they will not own their images created with the CC. Failing to pay adobe's ransom turns of access to their creations. In a sense their art is rented art available as long as they pay the ransom. Users are wondering why adobe didn't use the drop box model.
However that appears to be the hole in their model. Their CC model is not expanding as fast as they want. And, the bloated software is demanding computer upgrades many users do not need or want.
The multitude of small mom and pop shop users are screaming about the huge cost increase of adobe products. Many are planning to switch to another suite when forced because of upgrades or license server shutdowns.
