No, no, no. As software users, we cannot accept micropayments for using software features. Today you'll agree to IA stability, and tomorrow you'll pay separately for dehazing, sharpening, etc. All the more so when these micropayments are hidden in ON1's official advertisements. They know why.
Stability AI your paying to use someone else's resources. Processing and electricity isn't free If you want to use your own resources then there's the local generation as outlined in the video as-well which does a good job, isn't a micro transaction and will work for life. The Benefit of stability AI is the ability to choose for better resources and better models. If they didnt have it then they would be getting smoked by photoshop and lightroom(which are also microtransactions with no option to run locally or free) so on1's inclusion of stability AI is a bonus feature IMO.
@@DroverPhotography Funny, I don't have to make any micropayments to Adobe. I honestly pay a subscription and honestly get 100% of the product. I don't care how much it costs Adobe to use their resources. That's their problem. ON1 is de facto offering an incomplete product that requires additional payments to get 100% performance. Their prerogative, as long as they are honest about it in the commercials before you buy the software. Meanwhile, they don't talk about it, and that's dishonest. Today I have to pay for decent despeckling, tomorrow probably for sharpening, etc. If you agree with this, then OK, I do not agree with such practices. We both have the right.
