Yeah you’re saving $100 per year not $200, but with that, you give up the option standing on a certain version because you surrender your perpetual license.

As others have pointed out, you can only play if you pay. You’ll lose the ability to open any of your sessions once you stop paying you subscription because PT will cease to work.

While I agree $199 per year isn’t that huge of a deal, and is a business expense, or even the price of yearly hobby if that’s what you’re doing, it is the way it is being rolled out.

I for one will not surrender a perpetual license.
