Interestingly enough, I immediately moved from LastPass to 1password when I heard about the subscription service. Why? Because I trust AgileBits but last time I wanted to run 1password I was going to need to pay a shit ton of money just to get it on Most of my platforms. Now, overall I'll pay more money, but I don't have to worry about how many platforms I use or upgrading periodically.
Plus, syncing is done right automatically. Sure, AgileBits could go out of business and I'd not be able to use 1password anymore. That's fine. It took one day to switch from LastPass. The lock-in is minimal. I'd rather not continue using a piece of security software without updates being released.
(Even if they did, I have a gut feeling they are classy enough to open source the server, though. It looks like the app already is built with the possibility of connecting to 3rd party sync servers.)
And it looks like a real solution is in the works for Linux finally, so there's that.
