In line with its Creative Suite 6 announcement from earlier this week, Adobe today launched its Creative Cloud subscription service. As part of the Creative Cloud debut, Adobe has also publicly debuted Muse, a subscription-based website creation package that allow users to easily create websites without needing to know HTML. Muse has been in public beta since last August.
Adobe Creative Cloud Membership Delivers:
- Access to download and install all CS6 applications, new HTML5 desktop products – Adobe Muse and Adobe Edge preview – and integration with Adobe Touch Apps - Easy storage and sharing of content across desktop, mobile devices and the cloud - Integrated website publishing and hosting - Ongoing innovation that provides members with the most up-to-date products and services
Individual pricing for Creative Cloud is set at $49.99 per month with an annual commitment or $74.99 on a month-to-month basis. Muse is included in that package, but is also available as a standalone subscription product priced at $14.99 per month with an annual commitment or $24.99 on a month-to-month basis.
Adobe's Creative Cloud launch has also seen several improvements to the company's suite of iOS applications, including the launch of two new iPad apps: Adobe Proto [App Store] and Adobe Collage [App Store]. Plans for the two apps were announced last October as part of Adobe's push into tablet apps.
Proto is a protoyping tool that allows users to create wireframes of websites and apps right on their iPads using touch gestures, while Collage is a mood board app allowing users to combine images, video, and text to help define creative concepts and share them with others. Adobe has also updated its existing Photoshop Touch [App Store] and Ideas [App Store].
All four iOS apps, which are priced at $9.99 each, integrate with the new Creative Cloud services, including the free level of support which offers 2 GB of cloud-based file storage to allow for syncing of documents across applications.

The upcoming iOS 26.1 update includes a small but helpful change for iPhones, and it could prevent you from running late to something important.
Specifically, when an alarm goes off in the Clock app, there is a new "slide to stop" control on the screen for turning off the alarm. On previous iOS 26 versions, there is simply a large "stop" button, which could be accidentally tapped.
The new ...

You guys whine too much. You can pay for Netflix, Spotify/Rdio/and probably spend like $10+ a month on iPhone/iPad apps, yet you aren't willing to pay $50 a month for a suite of apps with cloud storage included? Are you kidding me?
I really like the way Adobe is headed. Paying $600 a year is justifiable when you'll never have to worry about paying for a CS update ever again. Even better that I'm a student and only have to pay $360 a year. My tuition is much, much more expensive than that and I use Photoshop, InDesign, Dreamweaver, Illustrator, and After Effects extensively. This is a great deal and I'll finally feel much better about myself since I'm finally giving money to a company that I've been pirating applications from for the last 15 years.
Very disappointed with Adobe! :mad:
They announced Photoshop CS5.5 & Illustrator CS5.5 & Flash Pro CS5.5 have
security vulnerabilities & they expect people to pay for the security updates.
You gotta pay for CS6 versions to get the security fix! :mad:
A year's worth of access to Adobe's entire software library for basically 1/4 of what I bring in on an average job? Done and done. Seriously, if some of you think this is in any way expensive, you need to revisit your business model. I pay more per year on ink for my proofing printers.
All you naysayers are nuts. This is a phenomenal deal, especially since Adobe has switched to a yearly upgrade cycle. I've already taken the leap. Goodbye FCP, Hello PP.
