The TL;DR is that after paying for IntelliJ for 12 months, you get permanent access to a 12 month old version. Updates are not included, unless you keep paying the subscription.

I'm not buying this upgrade either but this seems to be the unpopular opinion here.
Given the negative perception of Adobe's subscription model I assume fanboyism.
