    I'm trying the subscription model because I get a new laptop every 2-3 years and $70/year is better than $250-$300 for the version you own.

    It took forever to get a 'key' for the download. After multiple codes I was able to finally register the product.

      Hello RDteach, Many of the updates made to Office were from feedback we received from consumers like you. With this feedback, Microsoft came out with Office 365 (subscription based only) versions and Office 2016 versions sold at a one-time retail price and you own it forever. We hope this was helpful to you Microsoft
