+1, I don’t see what the big deal is, this model exists today. If you use Microsoft office you’re using this model now. I just signed up for office 365 and I really like it. I normally am the first to bash Microsoft and still can in many areas but this office 365 thing, not bad and 9 bucks a month or $89 per year, that’s totally worth it when you consider buying office used to be $500 or so and that didn’t include unlimited upgrades.
Subscription is good, keeps the products developing and lowers the cost of entry. I think we all tend to forget what stuff used to cost when we complain now.

You are paniccing over nothing really nothing. Read that article very carefully. It does NOT say that all apps will be subscription based. It only says that they will be if a developer wants them to be. My goodness, what will y’all panic over next?

This could be a baunified disaster, as I have so many apps I've purchased over the years from the app store, that having to pay for all of them each month could get incredibly, and I do mean, incredibly! expensive. --- Christopher Gilland JAWS Certified, 2016.

How are you all? I'm trying to understand htis article! so this emans that we will be charge for the apps we use monthly? I'm just wndering. It is talking about a subscription or soemthing like that! So if we search something, adds will appear,and then if we get the apps, we will need to pay a subscription in ordr to get new updates as they come out? I'm just confuse! LOL! I will really appreciate it if someone can clarify tis! I live in the united States! So if we pay a subscription will be also for the free apps right? I look forward in hearing from you soon.

But it, and the whole concept of subscription pricing, is a disappointment to me, and not what I buy Apple for. Still, it fits in pretty nicely with a lot of the other recent things Apple have been doing, so I probably shouldn’t be surprised. It’s just a shame, is all. -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.
