I believe Version 6 now on the market requires a monthly or annual subscription, and for that you receive free software updates. I noticed you can still get a Version 5 for Mac/Windows now for $189 at Amazon. Maybe same is available elsewhere, but I didn't look too far.
I also can tell you there is a plethora of Lightroom education on uTube, one series by a woman employee of Adobe which is really good.
My message to you is that I think you would be hard pressed to find a better photo managing software offering anywhere, and it would behoove you to spend some time researching on line before to see what all you can learn about the product.
BTW, do not misunderstand that Lightroom is not a Photoshop. i.e. you cannot undress that lady sitting on your lap in a photo. Rather, it is a photo file manager and provides editing capabilities to enhance the effects of your camera settings...........PM me if you want to discuss in depth.
