Why Pay a monthly fee!?

I have been using quickbooks 2013 for mac for years and am very pleased with it. I dont like how you are required to pay a monthly subscription to upgrade to the new quickbooks 2016. There is a desktop version available for purchase but it is limited and does not allow iCloud sync between devices. The future is in cloud technology and if quickbooks wants to stay relevant it needs to allow cloud sync between devices for free (espicially sense the desktop version is $300).
