SaaS itself is fine. A lot of software has recurring costs for the saas company (think clarifai, chatgpt, or circleci)

Subscriptions for software that you run on your own machine is a little much tho.

The word for the activity occurring in your second sentence used to just be called "hosting".

The problem is that there are fewer and fewer pieces of software that aren't hosted somewhere.
