Fair point -- the delta to be considered is against the existing SaaS/cloud offering, not the old-school everything-local model.

That having been said, not being able to save a file you've worked on because you ran out of credits would be a serious issue.

Yeah I agree with that, I think I went down the wrong path with credits = individual functions. Ive since seen that Autodesk does a credits system where tokens are used for time using the software. I think thats a much better idea than mine.
