Adobe Creative Cloud. It's really expensive, and once you stop paying, you lose everything.

No wonder why it's some of the most pirated software in the world.

Losing access to a work I put hours and days, sometimes months of my life was the main reason I now absolutely refuse any non-open source products. My advisor/colleagues sometimes say "university gives it for free", or "we pay all that money for this softwares", but I am not going to use them even if they are slightly better than open source.
