Adobe no longer sells PS6. Adobe Canada told all the retailers to pull it from the shelves when CC was announced. What retailers are not following adobes directives I cannot imagine.
It is not on the web site and as there are so many people selling not fully legal versions (grey market) I never buy software from anyone but adobe.

It is not about anti piracy as there are hacks already, (difficult but there) It is money grab. The enterprise editions are gone. It is a massive increase in pricing. Massive. The lab I manage costs about 4000$ for a 20 computer lab with a 3 year service contract, unlimited support and all the updates for the complete suite. The new pricing is 49.99 month (no discount for institutional prices) per machine (x20=999.8 monthly) by 11997.60 a year x3 is 35992$ an increase of 31992$. The people that are going to steal it will continue that is not going to change it is about the institutional groups that must buy it and are now forced out of the agreements they have had in place for many years. My lab has had a service contract since 1990 the first full version. Make no mistake this is about a MASSIVE price hike.
Picture buying a loaf of bread tomorrow and it costing 35$ from 4$ it is about the same increase.
