After 10 years, you're paying US $2398.8 for the use of one app, US $4797.6 for 2 apps. In 10 years you might upgrade 5X: say $US 250.00 - initial cost of software + $US 100.00 / upgrade = $US 250.00 + $US 500.00 = $US 750.00. If Adobe CC licensing ever shuts down, perpetual licensed pdts keep you going without interruption. If CC works for you, and you're making $$$$, all the best. At the very least, it's a tax write off.

What you say is true BUT it always comes down to what is the software worth to you (or in this case me) and you can't look at things in isolation. If I happen to be purchasing the entire Adobe suite the pricing is different and if I happen to use most of the suite its even better plus as you say it is tax deductible.
Would I prefer to get the suite for the price of Reaper - hell yeah but that is not an option LOL
Cheers
