I got a press release today from Corel and they are apparently going the same route that Adobe went earlier this year with a "cloud" based membership option. I have not used Corel for many many years, since I discovered Xara, so I did not read much more of the press release.

What Adobe have done with Creative Suite 6 is make all the suite products available as "Apps" for a reasonable monthly fee. They also have a series of iPad and tablet apps that work with their CS products.

I suspect that Corel is offering the same kind of deal.
