Should I Upgrade

I want to comment on this new setup, and to do so, let me explain my setup and how I use 1Password to sync:
I have three locations for vaults to sync to:
1. 1Password.com
2. Dropbox(this vault I feel is a little more secure, as to get to it, a hacker would first have to hack Dropbox's servers, then would have to crack encryption on the 1Password vault itself, so I use this to store passwords and data that are a little more sensitive, such as logins to banking websites)
3. My Computer(this vault never goes through any cloud, if and where I sync to any mobile device, it is only through 1Password's WLAN Server, I use this for my most sensitive data, such Driver's Licenses, Social Security Numbers, Bank Account numbers, etc.)
I, for one, am all for the subscription based membership licensing, especially at the prices 1Password is offering. I do not have a problem with this itself, and have been using this for the past few years. However, using standalone vaults is an absolute must for me, and if it comes to a point that I can no longer use standalone vaults as I described above, or in a similar way, then I will absolutely be looking for other options for a password manager.
I would also like to take this opportunity to comment that I have always hated how Dropbox was always the only option I could use to sync to a cloud storage. Especially since anymore, Dropbox's free edition only allows you to sync to two computers, and their premium plans are too expensive for me.
That said, if you really want a version of 1Password which only syncs to 1Password.com, and has no support for standalone vaults, you could keep that as "1Password 8", while keeping "1Password 7" up-to-date, supporting standalone vaults. This would make some sense, whether you want to do things this way or not. Either that, or just add support for standalone vaults back in to 1Password 8.
Regardless of what you guys decide to do, I wish you the best of luck. I sincerely hope that I can continue to use standalone vaults in 1Password, though, as I have loved and used 1Password for quite a few years(at least 5-6 years, and/or before the windows version was available, I think the first version I used was on my PowerMac G4, back before I retired it). Thanks for your support!
