Adobe: "Yea our expensive software has a lot of issues with it. What you gonna do?"
LTT and everyone else: "Be sad and keep paying you a ton of money per year."
Software as services need to be stop. We need to take a step back for once, and go back to the "you pay once, you own" days.
Here is the real question. Would you pay double if they fixed all of those problems?
@@dwnturn i agree about that but that's a bad idea for big companies but in video games it should never exist
@@dwnturn ...This is never going to happen. Why? Companies need a revenue stream. Subscription services fit what their shareholders want. You sell one and you're done and there are only so many people who need your software. You sell one to someone for life, you have a lifetime stream of money.
@@Rickbearcat seems like you're incentivizing them to have problems... Almost a software conspiracy to make more money
This dudes paying for all our pirated software
yes coz stealing is not good.. no matter adobe is sucking money from people.
He has to otherwise he will get screwed
@@akasks7 Fuck that. These people rob people yearly. Support consumer friendly, smaller businesses. Fuck these corporate assholes.
Fire
The problem with pirating software is that you are signaling to the monopoly that produces it "this heap of shit is valuable enough that people want to steal it". While I disagree with equating the act of copying to the act of stealing, a monopoly sees it that way, and would rather you "steal" their stuff instead of pay for competing stuff.
They like to tell you otherwise, but piracy benefits a company just as much as legal sales because it means you aren't supporting their enemy.
Pirates: look at what they have to do to mimic a fraction of our power
lol XDD im dying!
So in other words the douches who make it so expensive for ppl like Linus....
@@ScoobyShotU it will always be expensive, Adobe’s borderline vampiric business practices make sure of that
@@ScoobyShotU You literally just made that up, all studies have shown pirating is actually good for the industry because people who can pay do end up doing so for the ease of use compared to piracy.
@@frostjune6072 even Gabe Newell agrees piracy is good for the industry
This is where I wish more video producers come together and sponsor open source projects so that eventually, Adobe _can_ be pitched to the curb. If the file support and features meet enough parity, it might gain them more potential in the long run
So producers should gather to support the alternatives so adobes products will improve or get cheaper and then what? everbody going back to adobe? the real problem imho is that most people are too lazy to use something the mainstream isn't using and that even schools use software nobody can afford in his first year of work.
It has been done with 3d animation (Blender), Im surprised it isn't being done with video software.
I thought the same
A lot of editing / color / conforming / mastering facilities are moving to Resolve every day. Fusion is not quite there yet tough.
@@nonamedpleb Blender can do video, post production I think but it's a start. 🙂

We do $250K+ p/a worth of video work with solely Resolve and a single $10K PC.
Adobe is better in some areas, worse in others, ditching Adobe for Resolve isn't an issue and I hope more people do it constantly because subscription services is a bad future for creators.
I agree... I switched to Resolve the day I got my BMPCC6K. It was a bit difficult at the start but I am happy now. Left photojournalism to start a small production house, struggled a lot due to the pandemic, but things are much better now. But yes, subscription is such a bad idea. And we have two PCs :)
Yeah individual apps probably aren't as bad but Adobe does seem to have a whole suite that integrates very well
Im using final cut
Good for you, now you are a slave to Apple instead of Adobe. So.... basically nothing changed for you :)
When I heard Abode was switching to the Creative Cloud model I went straight to my campus's tech store and purchased the CS6 Master Collection with my student discount AND it happened to be on sale since they were liquidating all of their CS6 stuff. I am still using all it for editing to this day for 10 years now.
I’m so jealous of this lmao
Lucky you, I did the same thing Yea, but greedy Adobe cut my paid over $500 CS6 suite off, even stopping the actual disk loading. They ask me to locate the seller, knowing it's hard to locate out-of-business resellers with who Adobe at the time DID register my software from the seller back then. Some were blaming Windows 10 later finding out it was Adobe that wants everyone to get on the CC paid subscription, especially after Adobe went public stock market made them unreasonably aggressive. Adobe doesn't care about making enemies, only $$$ money. Actually, they did me a favor because it forced me to try and learn other programs like free DaVinci resolve that I eventually paid for the Studio version and perpetual easier up-to-date Ai programs like Filmora, Affinity Photo, ''Luminar Neo from Ukraine'', inPixo, and a host of others. These programs may not have longevity user support established like Adobe Ps, AE, and Pr yet, but I'm very satisfied deleted all that I can with Adobe's name off of my computer, and encouraged as many as I can to do the same, and will never ever look back, use or buy Adobe again. Sorry for the rant but Adobe got me F*Cked up.
Linus to Adobe "ha we're going to roast you on TH-cam"
Adobe "Your white balance is off"

@@brazeiar9672 Adobe needs to be payed, you see the point?
I'm gonna be honest, I read burn as bum
Adobe : "If everyone else jumps off a bridge, will you do it?"
The creative industry : "....Yeah........"
The familiar saying of the ages.
i always wondered what adobe bridge was for
"Don't be silly Adobe, nobody uses Bridge"
Oh yeah
It’s all fun and games until you’ve got a hard deadline for a video project in 12 hours and some idiot sends you a project in an unsupported format from his cheap editing software... if I’m about to lose a thousands of dollars because some idiot didn’t want to pay $56 a month for the base package of the entire creative suite you can bet someone’s head will roll and I’m going to warn all my creative buddies so they don’t get put in the same situation.
One problem I had with Vegas, they took away the Disable Resample button in something like the non pro version. So I went back to my older version because they have it in there. I was shocked that they'd take that away especially when it makes your video look interlaced/artifacts when you press pause on a progessive video
for me, it's having version 14 and they disabled GPU acceleration on older versions
That's weird because I have "Disable resample" option in a drop-down menu in the Project Properties window. I'm using Vegas Edit 20.
They didnt remove it. They just made it hella harder to find. I dont see why they dont just remove the feature as a whole. There was a whole wave of TH-cam back in the day where you would literally be able to tell that someone used Vegas because of it.
Just a heads up, we switched to resolve at my studio and found ourselves more effective than in adobe^^ Teamwork is easier if you use a server and database, training and collab is easier with the common workflow and one of the reasons we switched is that Dynamic Link itself would frequently fail on us. You need to really commit and understand a different NLE to also see how janky Premiere is from the outside. We saved so many hours in technical bullshit by switching it's unreal. Most important thing is that you get the work done though, regardless of the software. I think that 90% estimate will vary wildly from person to person though :)
Reason #1 to stick with Adobe: Taran won't have to spend 3 months rewriting all the macros
hahahaha
Taran has stated that he's willing to switch to DV resolve years ago. I think back when it was DV 12 or 13?
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
$10k für 3 month rewriting macros... Not the best salary in the world, but definitely not bad.
Would pay for itself the second year...
Maybe surprising: but that is not an uncommon reason for companies to stick with software that is old/costs more/has better alternatives. I saw companies who are stuck to old products because the cost to transfer all there customizing/additons/macros/knowhow to new/better applications are too high. It's quiet a big pain point for them. Sometimes they pay big money to the manufacturer when product are end-of-life and they still need support/patches.
This is why I’m cheering for companies like Affinity. Great software, normal prices.
Me to. I love Affinity to death. If I was a billionaire, I'd buy it once a day, and 'accidentally' lose my product key each night.
Affinity for life
Same here. Affinity, Resolve and open-source FTW
Same. And Procreate has to be mentioned as well. So many illustrators and digital painters have completely abandoned Adobe just to use Procreate on an iPad that supports the Apple pencil. That software is straight-up awesome - and it's $10. Not a month, but a one time charge. And they've never charged for an update. After almost a decade, Adobe still hasn't seriously challenged that App despite tons of releases for iOS. They've gotten so lazy in the last few years, with very little innovation with the creative suite.
@@MarioMatosYT Yeah, I am using the same combo. Affinity Photo and Rawtherapee (foss raw editor) are a beastly combo. Used in conjunction, there is so much power to be had.
My condolences for the pains you had to endure learning all those program interfaces. I'm a Vegas Pro user myself and enjoy the editing control levels over individual events, tracks, and entire project.
Have you calculated how much time your editors spend waiting for Adobe stuff to restart after crashes though?
And the time to recreate project if there was, for example, 5 min gap between autosave and Adobe crashed.
Adobe: So this means we can charge more and everyone will still use us?
They literally did that test last year. Just doubled the monthly cost of Lightroom and Photoshop plans out of nowhere. Guess what, these cost more now. Deal with it.
@@JanPospisilArt "it's the 2020 version that costs more" - "so can I keep using the 2019 version?" - "No."
@@liquidminds Yeah.
I'm still using my old boxed PS CS4, though less and less often.
Krita and other free software really does all I need from PS.
@@JanPospisilArt GIMP: notice me senpai!
@@JanPospisilArt CC 2020 and 21 do have a couple of really cool automation-tools. I can't say that Adobe sucks or that I don't miss those, but it's just not worth the price-tag.
I'd pay 60 bucks for that software. Once. Not each month...
"Before the dark times, before software as a service."
Truely the dark times.
Lol
"As A Service" is a plague, I work in the industry and I hate it.
I'm sincere with those Holy Americans that also paid 10k a year for a piece of buggy software. Why license a software like a driving license. Bruh.
i will never pay for software (except video games i’m fine with that)
Now we have video games "as a service" as well.
The amount of work you guys put in every 10 seconds of this video is just blowing my mind.. im just speechless.. i feel like "good job" is too small of a saying for what you have done
Would be great to have an updated version of this now. Since, many changes have come through 2022 and Affinity are well on the way to developing pro Apps
Reason to pay Adobe:
Job requirements
When your best reason to feed a monster is "its quasi mandatory due to being an industry standard that no one else can implement due to the monster owning the patent rights" then you know something has gone terribly, terribly wrong with the world.

Just say you can use adobe but use other software to do it. if it's an office work, then it should be your company who pay for it, not you.
Seriously. I’m a freelancer and people only want projects delivered as Adobe files (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign). I usually use bootleg versions but had to cave recently and get a subscription bc the bootleg versions weren’t functioning right for whatever reason.

It's pretty slick you took the time to explain the business end too. When calculating the cost of your editors though you only covered the base rate. You should have included the price landed as in with benefits, etc.
The way i see it, Adobe is like Apple when it comes to integration across devices (in this case purely software) and they're well known and usually amongst the first you hear about as a new artist , videographer, photographer etc. I first learned about and used Adobe in Highschool, it was essentially my gateway into these types of programs so i just stuck with it. I got used to it, they've got the same features as the competition more or less and most people don't really care to switch or even look into alternatives. So you kinda just get stuck paying with whatever subscription Adobe throws at you because you kind of don't have a choice.
Here's my problem with Adobe. I get it, software isn't cheap to maintain and constantly update. You need some sort of constant revenue stream this day in age. Although i don't use the complete Adobe suite to it's fullest extent, i just find that Adobe spends unnecessary amounts of time trying to implement features we don't need or will never use or just completely add additional software that causes you more headaches than it should. (like the example about prelude linus mentioned) instead of focusing on areas where people could benefit from. Like overall performance optimizations and just straight up making their damn subscriptions more flexible for everyone.
Here's my issue with their subscriptions. A. i'm paying for shit i don't even need. and B. i can't even use my subscription on all of my PC's because I'm gated by the amount of active subscriptions i can have at any point in time. It isn't uncommon for people to use and work from several computers at a time. in my use case, i have my office pc, home pc and laptop when i need to work on the go. For a while i was stuck with having to unlink my subscription on 1/2 of the PC's currently not being used to be able to use it on the 3rd and it was just a constant cycle of shuffling around my linked pc's in order to use adobe on more than 2 machines. So, i contacted adobe about it. Figured they'd be able to help me out. NOPE. They basically told me to go fuck myself and buy another subscription if i needed it on more than 2 computers.
So after paying for adobe for years, spending WELL over what they used to charge to buy the programs. this is how customers are treated? They're told they need to buy the sub twice if they want it on several machines?. It just doesn't make sense. I'd wager that's exactly the reason why Linus is paying 10k a year because he's forced to pay for the same sub several times over because adobe refuses to make any sort of compromises. I'd also wager they'd increase revenue and reduce the amount of people pirating if they re-worked their subscription model because as of right now, it's a complete joke.

DaVinci free is perfect for that and also can add audio... but this is all a new experience because I never did animation before and probably should of planned it all out more.
@@brianworden7022 ok
Da vinki⁉️
It’s so slow though
@@fernandocamarillo3710 resolve relies more on gpu than the adobe suite. What are your specs?
I've been using Resolve for a few years now for community videos (classical music concerts/recitals) and I don't use fairlight's because I have a separate DAW that I use instead for all of my audio processing. I'd recommend Mixcraft Pro for that - $150 usd and it's as feature rich as cubase etc. Very very affordable option with quite good results. It's also a pay once software (you can optionally pay for major version updates).
I've been using Davinci Resolve for 5 years now and I'm loving it. Frequent updates bring new features each time, the diversity of video to color grading to sound and effects are great, but are still getting there as some features and assets do need a bit more refinement. I noticed the audio issue on the render where you hear that audio frequency, the fix is to render a quicktime container with linear pcm audio, they still need to fix that issue. Besides that, buying the license once and getting lifetime updates is greatly worth it.
I'm a professional web dev and designer who dumped adobe for Affinity 2 years ago and I now look back every month and laugh with giddy joy. Affinity does not have all the capabilities of Photoshop and Illustrator. But it has everything I need. Definitely check em out people.
DaVinci resolve for VFX, audio AND editing, EVEN color grading. It's all in one then just get affinity photo/ designer.
Affinity designer is straight up better as a drawing app compared to illustrator. For the work I do it's a combo of Affinity and Sketch nowadays
Is it a one time purchase or a subscription
@@heyitslewi1599 Affinity is one-time purchase for each of the products in their suite of three (Affinity Photo, Designer and Publisher which are their photo-editing, vector-illustrating and full desktop-publishing-for-print products). They're currently offering a 90 day free trial of the whole suite and 50% off the already really decent pricing. They're a UK company (Serif) who have been making creative-y software since, I think, the Windows 3.1 era - their old Serif PagePlus product was their best thing, before they cut off the old codebase and started from scratch to make the Affinity suite a number of years ago. Also, for regular personal-license purchases you're allowed to install the same license-purchase on ALL of your own personally-owned-and-controlled computers (although not across-platform - if you want to use it on both Mac and Windows personal machines you will need both licenses). I'm not a paid shill, I've just been using their stuff since that Windows 3.1 era - their business practises have always been respectful of customers, so I shout them from the rooftops because good software from good companies deserves some ❤.

Agree, the main problem is collaboration among designer/editors. Every client i used to work with are using Adobe eco system.

I got into photography right around the time Adobe CS6 was falling into the back burner. Like, you could still buy the creative suite through places like B&H. I didn’t buy the software immediately and by the time I wanted photoshop the CC was out. I spent hours on the phone working down Adobe to let me buy photoshop CS6 despite it being recently archived. I’ve probably saved thousands as a result of that decision.
Okay, that transition was smooth. Well done I think you have to have sponsors considering you spend 10K on adobe.

WOW! I haven't even heard of DaVinci Resolve, and it looks really slick. And really functional.

I'm gonna be honest, I had to search for hours to learn how to get Movie Maker installed on my computer for editing together videos.
Lololol
Not gonna lie - for people like me who are a one man small TH-cam-Channel - Davinci Resolve is nothing short of amazing!

Im with you there! I love Resolve 15 and probably need to update soon. Idk what version they're on now.
Came here to say this.
@de_Ultimate Hell to the yeah! That and HitFilm's mini DLC based expansions is also very nice. In the end, I use Davinci, but Hitfilm is my backup plan.
Handystrahlung ist Ungefährlich
@de_Ultimate Best way I can describe it: Davinci is more like Premiere than Hitfilm is (to the point there is a profile containing all the same shortcuts). I do like Hitfilm's pricing model ($250 all out vs $5-$20 for what parts you actually need), which is why I still give it a lot of credit.
Would love to see an update on this to know how the scene has changed
I am a sort beginning learner for DaVinci resolve since that is my main editing software. I have created many skits like 13, and messed with the color grading, effects, sound, and clips. To me, it is pretty easy however there are some things that need improvements.
The real question is, what tf does adobe do with the money? Cause lord knows they don't use it to develop software anymore
if they have shareholders it is very likely they get first cut of the pie, and with a big knife.
@@Invaderzim2004 they are $400 a share
i mean they have to bathe in something, right?

@@hardlyhome314 price of shares doesn’t matter, it’s the sum of all the shares that matter. If Amazon has 10 shares at $100 per share they’re worth $1000 as a company and if adobe has 2 shares at $400 a share adobe is worth $800 as a company, so the stock price itself is deceptive.
Me who uses pirated version of Adobe : interesting
Mr. ThundeR ok
Me too and probably half of all Adobe suite users lol
😎 it do be like that
Wait there’s a paid option for Adobe CC?
*knock-knock* ADOBE, OPEN UP!
Actually as someone who uses Davinci Resolve, you don't necessarily have to get the paid version. The main advantage that you get with the paid version is support for high fps export and some unique effects. Even if you don't buy it, there really isn't any lack of features. Plus some of the paid features do end up coming to the free version with updates. Plus it's very good even on low end devices. I started editing on my laptop with an 11th gen i3 and just 8 gigs of ram, and Davinci still ran pretty well
For a professional workflow you definitely need the paid version.
i actually use the whole Creative Cloud too, but with the addition of Davinci Resolve as my main Editor and RX 8 and FL Studio as my Audio Tools. Which is ok as i do have a rather linear workflow anyways. The only thing that is annoying is that i have to render the effects from after effects, as they are just the best at like almost everything. Especially because you can script your effects. Wish at least the Essential Graphics Tab from Adobe could be part of Resolve too, but that is probably not happening.
I did start with Premiere though, but since my Cameras are now from Blackmagic and i do like to shoot in BRaw and i have to color grade them anyways and davinci resolve is free with every camera, its actually the best option to use anyways.

Meanwhile pirates: did you guys pay for softwares?
And this is why I and pretty much everyone who isn't a true "professional" in that all their work revolves around it pirates their software. The price tag is just too ridiculous, like asking someone to pay 100 bucks for 1 cone of ice cream or 400 bucks for a pizza. What we need is companies that can truly compete with them and force down their prices.
Honestly, I detest these "pay every month" or "pay every year" methods. If I buy something, it should be mine for life.
Barely anyone in the professional video uses adobe suite. Some after effects use. Mostly Nuke, Smoke, Maya, and even davinci resolve + fusion are getting used. After effects is a fucking nightmare on big projects. Node based programs work way better. Go check out Nuke's price tag lmao
resolve and fusion have a much better work flow than adobe does, idk what linus is doing that he uses 30 different programs from adobe, they're not even the best available nor the best workflow.
Every PRO learned on pirated software, fact.
These products are not made to be affordable for you pal... they don’t have to make it affordable either so you can keep posting CoD videos no ones watching

So the deal with Adobe is very much like with Windows: everyone uses it, so nobody can get away from it?
More like apple tbh
You can get away with Adobe. But, of course, you will lose dynamic links between the apps as Linus said.
@@musicwithsagar The Affinity suite actually uses one file format for all of their software, you can switch between them as you please. Mind you that's a total of 3 apps with no video editing capabilities.
and to do so just cost to much
And just like with Windows: everybody pirates it
FCPX is another widely used video editing software with almost all of adobe premiers and after effects features, including motion tracking, warping, distortion, keying, camera shake. It also has so many addons created by pixel film studios!
I just love Vegas pro, my audio editing skills is limited to audacity basics so there is basically nothing bad about the downside for me
Cmon Linus just pirate it like the rest of us!
*this is a joke don't sue me Adobe*

When I was in highschool we had a pretty advanced AV program our own television studio which we use not just for projects but for our schools television program we produced for the education channel. I was in this AV class we had editing stations with computers actually from Canopus with multi cpu capture and video editing cards I could scrub raw uncompress video all day. The computers had Adobe on them which very few students used I was one of them. Most used a production editing program called Storm Edit it was real fast I remember that lacked some features of Premiere but at the same time was way more simple and had some of its own things adobe didn't like 3D effects and such of the time. Man I miss the days when I was in grade school and got to sit in front of the machine assigned to me.
I love that the free davinci resolve doesn't have a watermark, and still has almost everything except some effects
Adobe: You could not live with your own failure, where did that bring you, *back to me*

Dang, Taran would have freaked out because his hotkeys would no longer work with DaVinci Resolve.
hahahahahaha!
took him a while to set those up
Taran is the reason they would never change software package, even to a better solution.
He has list of feature requests and bugs yet to be fixed for Adobe Premiere Pro.
@@akyhne Unfortunately, you're right. Affinity is just sooooo much better than Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign. As for Davinci Resolve: I've almost never used Premiere Pro but when I did, I didn't feel at home. Davinci is so easy to learn. And I've never heard of someone regretting the change to Resolve. And I haven't heard of anyone wanting to switch away from Resolve
thank you for summing it up at the end. it costs more in the end to replace it. however, i do wonder if its posible to learn the aps to use them easier?
Fairlight may not be Audition, but it is certainly more than enough for video editing. I've been working in TV, broadcast, and documentary filmmaking for 20+ years. The only reason I still pay Adobe is for commercial projects that I use After Effects for. Even though fusion is much much more capable software, I haven't found the time to learn and more importantly get "fast" in it.
Linus : Using Adobe cost $10K a year !!

Imagine if just a fraction of the money spent on Adobe, was spent instead on developing GIMP.
the GIMP team should take a page from Krita's book and crowdfund big improvements.

this is why i moved to davinci resolve, best choice ever, their free version is basically the studio version, and I've used the free version for longer than the studio version, but own both. The only reason I keep adobe is for photo editing software, I still want to find an alternative to it, something free or one time payment
Now hold on... The Fairlight audio engine can handle A LOT of what Auditiion can. Also, there is the integration of using VST plugins wich can eplace most or not all of audition's effects, sometimes even free or very cheap. It now even has AI to remove background noise from voice clips. Fairlight also has it's reputation as a renouned synthesizer builder (not that that is important in this case) so I really think they went over that a little bit too fast in this video.
Adobe: it's free real estate

No. Adobe doesn‘t know the word „free“.

Just pirate the damn thing.
I have been editing in Premiere for like ten years, and been a Creative Cloud subscriber for at least seven. I finally got tired of dealing with Premiere's bugginess and switched to DaVinci Resolve. My editing speed went up, and the number of crashes I dealt with almost vanished entirely. When comparing two larger projects, the last one that I did in Premiere and the first one that I did in DaVinci Resolve, I had a total of seven crashes from Premiere, two of which corrupted the save file, resulting in lost work. DaVinci crashed only twice, and both times I was back up and running in a few seconds. That was over a year ago, and I still have never had a save file corrupted by DaVinci.
Unfortunately, my attempts to replace Photoshop with GIMP were...amazingly frustrating. But at least I'm only giving Adobe 9.99 a month now, instead of 59.99.
I think alternatives from expensive programs are coming up these coming years. Affinity suite is a good alternative. Not perfect (not as big as adobe) but close ot it, with great devs that update a lot. No crash/lag using it. Wich photoshop have ALL the damn time.
DV Resolve is clearly one of the best out there. It's even used all the time in the movie industry for color grading.
@@Ssecave yah i was gonna say that too affinity is really good
As a GIMP user, I understand not using it, ever, for anything, if you can avoid it.
@@reallyreallyreallyreally I went over and took a look at Affinity, and the pricing and feature set is definitely tempting me away from Photoshop. I might have to pick it up and use it in my next video and see how well it works. Fortunately I am not a PS power user, I mostly use it for cleaning up example photos, occasionally doing some light asset animation, and basic graphics to illustrate videos.
@@usp211816 I have tried repeatedly over the years to switch to Gimp and the interface and tools always trip me up. They are juuuuust close enough to PS to be confusing and non-intuitive to me.
you opened my eyes, what I am watching here, fairwell!
When I get an Adobe advert on this video: oh yeah, that's DEFINITELY what this video is all about.
the ending is a bit sad, that so many people are stuck paying to this big company and not being able to be agile and move to other software for a better price

I mean you could get adobe products for free if you sail the sea if you know what I mean 😏
He makes a good point. Everybody uses it and nobody wants to deal with some snowflake file type. There's a reason why publishers for example mostly only accept txt, rtf or doc (not even docx) and print companies only DVI or PDF (and mostly DVI). Suck it up or don't get your product out.
I know that a few bigger financial companies still use tech from the 80s. Upgrading that tech costs money, you loose money because of the downtimes and then you still don't know if it's going to work, which potentially costs even more money. Therefore they keep the old tech running up until the last possible moment.
The whole industry works like that, it always has been. Private people, aka those who watch this channel, are not the intended market for companies like Adobe.
Another example: A big industrial player in Germany (can't disclose who) just placed an order at a small company I know. Price? 500 Million for two (small) machines with the option for two more and that's just procurement. There are multiple years of maintenance attached for additional millions of Euro.
That's the reason why 10 grand per annum isn't really much in the enterprise space.

For me, Davinci resolve is very awsome. V.17 is much more stable and last than V.16. Black Magic Design also added many new features that were added and the software is much easier to use so thumbs up to that. In the end, as long as it works for you, no matter what software you use.
When Adobe Cloud first came out I could actually hear horror movie music in my head but I was too young and stupid to understand why.In my opinion even if Adobe pricing is okay for firms or professionals that can actually earn a living I'm not seeing an option for aspiring newbies that want to learn.They no longer sell full licenses for the old versions: they could at least make a version of the software that maybe doesn't have all the bells and whistles but you can buy it one time.
I tried to cancel my $20 a month student Adobe because school canceled due to covid and they wanted me to cough up like $60 to cancel early
That's ironic, my school district started offering every student free adobe software because of COVID-19
Happened to me, though I was with them for a few months for a couple of my classes and they still decided to attempt to charge me to cancel "early." yeah so I emailed them about how stupid it was and canceled it free of charge.

It's cause you signed up for a yearly plan but paid monthly.
Affinity Photo has full PSD export now, and the integration between Photo, Designer, and Publisher is improving with every update. Adobe's days are numbered.
Adobe unlike every other alternative; has every kind of software a content creator can desire and they are integrated very well. Affinity on the other hand is no where as close
@@kym.7689 Well, I'll take a slightly smaller feature set in return for not having to pay a subscription fee forever.
That "Slightly" is soo far from the reality
If you want just PS AI IND only then you have to get the full all programs bundle because otherwise you'd be paying about 60 bucks monthly opposed to 53 bucks iirc.
While if you buy Affinity's PS AI IND alternatives then you pay once 50 bucks full price a program (disregarding the discounts that happen usually up to 50%, I got mine 35 bucks a program) with free updates until the app reaches version 2.0 or 3.0 and even then you can still use your version forever.
I don't know how that can be considered a bad deal no matter how you look at it, from a graphic designer's perspective Affinity is a blessing.

Seeing this again, I wonder if you guys will do a video on Windows Movie Maker. As a prank "We moved to Windows Movie Maker (Gone Wrong)" or more of a retrospective, it would be interesting to see your guys' take on it. Im sure at least one of you started off on it.
The gpu issue in resolve is easily fixed. Just select use optimised media. This automatically does timeline proxies suited to your hardwares performance, then reverts to original media 9or high quality proxies if desired) for export.
and your editors were also not using the full functionality of resolve for ingestion, or compositing.
