A Photoshop Alternative?

  Adobe have been holding us to ransom for years with ever increasing prices, terrible user support (especially phone support), and now an impractical cloud based monthly subscription CS package. There have been many attempts by other software companies to compete, but Adobe have successfully cornered the market as an industry standard... But Affinity Software mean to change all that, or at least where Photoshop is concerned.

  Less than 48 hours ago Affinity offered up the BETA version of their new software for free. It's unclear what aspects or similarities it will share with Photoshop, but I'm really curious to try it.
