In the future, Apple users should expect more paid upgrades and subscription bundles just like what the company launched with Apple Creator Studio last month.

But, while Creator Studio is a reasonable deal for hardcore users of Final Cut and Logic Pro, it also introduced exclusive paid features and upsell banners into Apple’s previously free-with-no-asterisks iWork suite of Pages, Keynote and Numbers.
