I believe this is the same in the UK.

I have to depreciate the purchase over several years. I cannot deduct the full expense from this year's tax return. If I pay a smaller fee for an annual subscription license, I not only smooth out the cost, but I can deduct the full amount in the current year. Is the tax treatment the same in the US and other countries? Truth in Advertising Disclosure: I am biased. I am a reseller for a software application that is sold mainly by subscription (WebWorks ePublisher). But I purchase other software by subscription, and I prefer it.
