I bought the 6.9 version on DVD having heard it was the last one to be in that format: all later ones would be on the cloud. Funnily enough I don't bother doing any editing with it, but use PSE 15 for that. That said my editing is harmless enough as I tend to used the camera viewfinder as much as possible.
