Lets be clear, its not a subscription model, its the bastardized lovechild of a subscription model and rent seeking. Those who apply the model to their service, software or product will only ever last so long, because we know how rent seeking turns out in the end, we have been here before.
I disagree that rent seeking is making a large scale come back and I would argue that just because the software space thinks its had an epiphany, that doesnt mean the customers are going to swallow it.
People are waking up to the rent seeking and we dont like it, but then people never have, can you blame them?
