You guys must be new to development tools......
Visual Studio from Microsoft is $1,200 to purchase the software and then you pay a subscription for non-software license
Development tools designed for professional use are usually pretty expensive, $20/month is an extremely good price for someone who would be using this for professional use and making money off of it
If you can't afford to fork down $20/month, you probably don't need this software as much as you think and you can easily go get free editing software to use
Adobe offers amazing software and they put a lot of work into them, the monthly subscription they and most other companies use is what allows them to keep developing and innovating, I have no problem paying for the Adobe products that I use
