I've preordered a one year membership for 'Creative' Cloud.

I currently have Lightroom 4 and CS Web Premium 5.

I actually would like a couple of the packages not available in the Web version so was looking at the Master suite with an upgrade cost of just under $1600.

Creative cloud will cost me $38 per week for year one, and gives me access to all the packages in the Master Suite + Lightroom 5 in the future.

There are also some other features that I might like so I've given it a go. Hopefully they won't hike the price too much next year.

The $38 is a discounted price that exists for all customers of a suite program back to CS3, (for Australia). From scratch it would be $63.

I've thought quite hard about which option to go for, this allows me allways to stay up to date, and compared with the Master Suite option works out cheaper at this point, given that I pretty much update every other version or so.

I hope this is the right choice, but I'm going to give it a go, cost wise Adobe do seem to reward early adopters, so I've taken the plunge.
