ADOBE are changing the way users can purchase their best known software program, Photoshop.

The much vaunted photo editing suite will now be available as part of an online subscription to the new Creative Cloud (CC) service from Adobe.

For UK users, a subscription to the complete Adobe CC service will cost £47 a month, if you sign up for a year. If you want the freedom to cancel at any time, you'll need to pay £70 a month.

If you just want a single program, such as Photoshop CC, a subscription will cost you £17 a month.

By way of contrast, the current generation of Photoshop, CS6, costs around the £650 mark for the photo editing software alone.

CS6 will still be available as to buy and download, however, although it will not be for sale as a physical product.
