Thanks Derick for this. Unfortunately I think you may be right. My journey is the same as yours: absolutely loved Aperture, then brief switch to Lightroom but not liking the subscription model and then found my ultimate powerful solution with Capture One. Switched at the time it was version 9. Guess we’ll learn more what Capture One/Phase One have in mind on future pricing structures. Not looking good … their software always been expensive but worth it. I certainly hope it’ll not to a take or leave it option only. Thanks for an awesome podcast.

Given Adobe subscriptions are $10/mo, looks like this will all but kill new business for Capture One.

Totally agree, Derrick. Well stated.

As an Aperture user, I went with Managed Libraries. It was a pain to relocate the images when I transitioned to Capture One. I have been a “perpetual” C1P license owner and am glad I decided that I would not go with the C1 P equivalent of managed libraries. Makes me feel less locked into C1P. Easier transition to Lightroom when my present version of C1P is no longer supported.
