A Critical Analysis of the Subscription Economy

I've updated my comment. You don't lose access, but you cannot open old files.

I suppose you could use a PSD or AI to Sketch converter. I'm unsure about other file types.

I think you can open and view them with Photoshop, just not edit. At least that's my understanding.

I suspect you can still edit them with an older version of the Photoshop. PSDs have been around forever.

I am not arguing that subscription models forced by Adobe on users is a good thing. It is, IMO, horrible and is the reason I am still using CS3 for my photography hobby.

I left Adobe because of the subscription model. The fact that they don't handle Fuji images well made this decision easier.
