Adobe has officially put Creative Suite out to pasture, making Creative Cloud the exclusive means by which consumers can acquire Photoshop, Illustrator, and other Adobe creative applications.
The move was inevitable, but not without its controversy. Confirmation of the transition comes from Adobe itself, which updated the CS6 Web page to announce that the product has been retired.
The Web page now states that, ‘Adobe creative apps are available exclusively through Creative Cloud. ’ The page also reveals this change officially took place on January 9. Adobe announced its transition to a subscription-based model in 2013, and in 2015 provided the last CS6 Camera Raw update.
For the moment, Lightroom 6 is still available for purchase as a standalone application. It's priced at $149 for a full license.
