I can't fully agree with the statement that Adobe makes shitty products, otherwise the InDesign Gods would immediately smite me, but I agree they are a shitty company.
Their pricing is akin to a cable company offering you HBO (Photoshop/Illustrator) bundled with a dozen shitty lifestyle channels nobody wants.
Also, offering the same product online with region-locked prices is as shitty as it gets — that's textbook "extract as much value as possible from customers" behavior.
