well I am (or rather my company) is a paying customer aswell. they offering is really cheap and you get tons of family accounts for free.

but I think a subscription model always depends on the use case, I mean it's probably impossible to pay for everything (considering that every software that we would use, will be using a subscription) I'm on a mac and lots of small tools are priced like 4-5 € which means I only need to buy a new version ones apple updates his os.
