After seeing the MSDN Subscriptions it left a very bad taste in my mouth.
Once again the aspirations of the larger companies with larger dev teams seem to be tailored for and patronizingly the smaller are left in between the neatly cut lines, where things are grey.
I design, code, look after the testing and in general do just about everything in my small company. The same goes for my my employees. We have to be flexible within small margins.
I think there are two main cons here.
- An increase in complexity (costs, decisions, features)
- The different hats we need in small business vs the clearcut roles of larger business
I think that this is the wrong scheme to implement to regain costs on what appears to be an excellent system. There seems to be some endemic corporate marketing philosophy becoming more and more apparent.
I am extremely unhappy about this latest move.
