Adobe Creative Cloud DiscountI've been meaning to do this personally, but almost forgot -- so here's a reminder of an expiring deal. If you're a current user of any Adobe software (CS3 or later), you can upgrade to Adobe's new all-inclusive Creative Cloud membership for $29.95/month (instead of $49.95) for the first year -- a savings of $240. The discount expires at the end of this month (August), so get cracking if you're thinking of signing up.

To get the discount you'll have to commit to an annual plan instead of month-to-month. If you're not in for the subscription-based pricing, Production Premium is $1899; if you want it all, the Master Collection is $2,599. If, for example, a company is footing the bill and you get to keep the software, these might still make sense. Also, if you're a student or teacher there's an additional $100 discount available on the software packages until August 26th. But considering the monthly membership is $360 for a full year after the discount -- and considering Adobe comes out with new versions basically every year -- they're really making Creative Cloud the most attractive version.


If you're looking for training for this new software, here are a bunch of Premiere Pro video tutorials and some others via Adobe TV.
