Academic pricing for e-learning apps

Articulate and Adobe offer academic pricing for teachers and students. It's not as beneficial as it was when it was a permanent license. The product is offered by an annual subscription so you'll need to qualify for this each year you want to use it.

If you work on a team it's more likely your manager would approve of subscribing to some sort of app. It's not cheap, though. Take a look at the pricing below. Also, if you work independently either for a small business or as a contractor, the $1000 annual fee needs to be factored into the ROI of your projects. Do you think these prices are reasonable or a bit out of reach?
