I'm subscribed to a lot of things and what businesses need to get is that they have this subscription thing that they THINK will get them more money but it won't because more people will buy their software at a higher price of it's one time.
Nonsense. Of course it gets them more money long term, unless you want to claim more expertise than the Masters Degree economists that Adobe will have on staff to help determine their pricing model. Two reasons for this include people who can afford $50 a month but not $2K in a single payment expands your potential customer base significantly, AND single standalone products often get used by organizations for 5-6 years or sometimes even longer whereas subscription is the equivalent to upgrading sooner than 5-6 years.
