GENERAL. Photoshop CS2 is NOT (and has never been) free. if you think you are getting blocked by the spam filter or have any questions, comments or suggestions. RELATED REDDITS.
Adobe is still selling CS6 as a standalone product: $700 for photoshop CS6 stand alone. Always been insane high like this, one of the reasons they moved to a subscription model. They wanted their revenue but they wanted to open the audience. It's easier for many to spend $50 a month for the entire creative suite than pay $2500 once. Now if you just need photoshop then you can get access to photoshop and lightroom for $10/mo or $119/yr: or if you really just need to open a PSD then GIMP probably works fine for your needs. This is one of the few situations where a subscription is worth it. If you are simply an amateur, you can get an old version free.
But if you are using it in any professional capacity, the updated versions do add real improvements. And at $700, it would take close to 7 years to be paying more for a subscription than the actual software.
And that is assuming you never upgrade and would be using the 7 year old version of Photoshop in 2021. A lot if subscription models are rip offs for the consumer, but this appears to benefit both Adobe and the consumer.
