You are completely missing the point and you have been right along.
If you paid US$2500 for the Master Collection and I only pay $30 or $50 per month, how is that bad for those of us who never owned a box of CS4, CS5 or CS6? And for those of us who really don't need an exit strategy.
It might be bad for you, but insulting those of us who happen to hit dead center in the sweet spot of the offer is just rude.
