Apple just announced a new Creator Studio subscription, and yeah… just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in. In this video I walk through what’s actually included—Final Cut Pro, Logic Pro, Motion, Compressor, MainStage, and now Pixelmator Pro—plus Apple’s productivity apps like Keynote, Pages, Numbers, and Freeform (which are basically already free on every Mac). The price is $12.99/month or $129/year, with a steep discount for students and educators. If you’re new to Apple’s pro apps, it’s honestly a solid value on paper. But I’ve got a few bones to pick. I’m dealing with the same subscription fatigue you are, and I still prefer owning the tools I use—especially when my work life lasts longer than whatever subscription I’m “renting.” The bigger concern is what happens next: Apple hints that subscription users may get features (probably AI stuff) that won’t come to the standalone apps. My main question is whether people like me—who already paid for Logic and Final Cut—will still get major updates, or if Apple is going to slowly force us into subscribing to keep up. That’s the part that matters.
