However if you have Lightroom bundled with Photoshop under the $9.99 a month plan and stop that subscription, the catalogue part does keep working and actually if you have quick develop settings on import those keep working too. Of course Lightroom is still available under the perpetual licence model to purchase at retail or the same bundled with some cameras, especially ones that have a red dot on them ;-) I know that some people just dislike the subscription idea from anyone, which is personal choice of course. I actually have perpetual licences for both the Creative Suite and Lightroom but the $9.99 a month is compelling enough for me with the continuing updates especially that I use that in their place on two computers here.
