> So the primary impact of switching from standalone license to subscription, if you're planning on using 1Password for a while, is that instead of paying a larger chunk of money every so often when they drop a new major version, you move to paying a flat couple bucks a month or larger chunk per year.

One thing that is not clear to me is what happens with the subscription license if you go a long time without internet access. With the standalone license, it checks the validity of the license when I enter it, and then I'm good as far as I've been able to tell forever more.

If I take a laptop with a 1Password subscription, fully validated and synced, and spend 6 months with no internet access, will 1Password continue working?

Remember, 1Password is often used for more than just internet passwords, so wanting to use it with no internet access is not unreasonable.
