What is downside, or upside, in upgrading to TI 2017 NG

Thread needs solution

I already have a non-subscription paid version of TI 2017. Is there any advantage to paying another $69.99 to have the non-subscription NG?

There is no perpetual license for NG. NG is a premium subscription only service.  Unless you need/want the 1TB cloud space and the new ransomeware security features, you will be no worse off for sticking with your perpetual license.  Perpetual licenses are good forever, but limit you to that major version (2017).  Subscription licenes (both standard and NG), give you major version upgrades at no cost as well (while the subscription is active).  However, the Windows GUI application will cease to backup after 30 days if the subscription is not renewed.  Personally, I like perpetual licenes, myself, but it really matters where you place value on the NG security features and the Cloud storage. 

Thank you Bobbo, I shall stick with what I have.
