    Not that I condone piracy, but I thought photoshop switched to a SaaS model from CS6 or so that made it unlikely to be pirated?

      It’s still possible and last time I used it, it was about as easy as can be.

      When I last did it, you just downloaded the regular program, installed it, then you ran a patcher and that was it. This was a couple years ago now, but Adobe already had their current business model.

        Yup. The only real difference is the pricing model, the program is pretty much the same.

        I rememeber they tried offering online libraries of stuff for download to justify the subscription for some products.
