Sorry, I do not do subscriptions. I only upgraded to v17 last year, from v14, I think. And I have even less interest in any product that requires me to be on line to use it.

When I go to xara.com I see a site that appears to be aimed at office workers, not creative professionals. I don't even see a product name anywhere. It's like a completely different company with the same name and nothing of interest to me.

Overall, it looks as if Xara no longer has much to offer me, whereas I have no problems with the way Magix does business. At least they seem to be offering software for creative artists. When they took on SoundForge, it got better and better so I have to wonder why Xara hasn't flourished similarly under the Magix banner.
