Subscription vs. Bought Software

To buy or not to buy…that WAS the question. Now, most computer/mobile software have changed the question to whether you should buy or subscribe. Which is the better option for you? Which will be more cost-effective over time? The Brothers discuss the pros and cons of software subscriptions and provide suggestions for the variables you should consider when making that decision. In addition, Alan helps to “flush” out some exciting new tech announcements, and the Brothers give updates on their Christmas tech gifts (aka, purchases). A great way to start 2023…and you can listen to it all in under one hour (well, if you listen at 2X speed…)!
