Ford didn't say you must use my automobile and pay a monthly fee for
the privilege of driving it, he said you can buy my car or you can buy

But then, I've heard that Henry Ford once said "If I asked people
what they wanted, they would have asked for faster horses." So maybe
Adobe does know what they are doing....
