[Leica] The long expected Adobe price rise

[Don Dory]

Many, many of the Gen Z generation use the cloud system.  They are very
mobile and don't have a desire for hard drives etc.  A few exceptions but
generally speaking.  Moving away from the "rich" first world many people
can only afford a monthly outlay even if it is more a year.  Even in the
first world many people can't take advantage of yearly payments for
insurance products or property taxes.
