Do you think it's better for a young designer to use free, open-source art programs or to pay for commercial programs? Explain your answer, but come up with at least one counterargument that forces you to defend your position when you explain why you think one option is better than the other.

Answer:

The young designer should use free open-source art programs for his designs. The designer can create new tools and get and update a verse collection of design tools in the software.

Step-by-step explanation:

An open-source program is a software or application whose source code is available for changes, upgrade and sharing within the public.

Rather than in closed-source software where all upgrades and changes are made only by the tech-company with the license, and the expensive nature of the purchase, the open-source code programs are mostly free with a general public license.
