Perpetual vs Annual Subscription

Various on-line down loadable products are sold in the internet with different Licensing Model. All the products are only subscribed by the users. No one product is purchased completely. There are two types of licensing. One is Perpetual Subscription Licensing model and the other is Annual Subcription Model.

For Perpetual Subscription Model the pricing can be with the support and maintenance or the price includes first year support and for the subsequent years we have to pay the support and maintenance. Some products will have additional price for upgrades.

For Annual Subscription Model, we have to pay the same money every year (the pricing includes the support).
