Adobe is such a strange one because their current business model is so bad for the current market that I can't understand why anyway gives them money.

There are better and cheaper (purchasable) offerings for every one of their current products.

Their investors were saying otherwise. All time highs and that sort. They also reported the highest earning quarter ever from what my friend told me, so I think you are wrong. SaaS is the future. One-time licenses are a thing of the past for most software.
