Adobe unveils $9.99 'lite' version of Creative Cloud

When, earlier this year, Adobe launched all the new versions of its Creative Suite apps via the Creative Cloud subscription service only, one of the selling points was being able to access every single tool for just one monthly subscription. For some, that was an appealing prospect. Yet one group of Adobe users especially - photographers - justifably balked at the idea of paying $50 (£46.88) a month for tools like Dreamweaver CC and Edge Animate CC that they were never going to use.

So to get those stragglers on board, Adobe has just announced a new 'lite' [our word, not theirs] version of the Creative Cloud specifically aimed at them. The Photoshop Photography Program is a $9.99 (£8.78) per month scheme (on a 12-month contract) that open to anyone who already owns Photoshop CS3 or higher.
