Fun times ahead for #Adobe designers. Today, if you open a PSD (even one that's 20 years old) with an obscure PANTONE colour, it will remove the colour and make it black. Pantone want US$21/month for access, and Solid Coated goes behind the paywall in early November. 
In the oldest version of Illustrator 2022 still accessible, you can see some Pantone swatch libraries that have been removed from the latest release. The color names inside still might be paywalled in November though.
Two corrections!
1. Pantone's site offers different prices to different regions, but doesn't show this or specify currencies (I'm in Australia, see pic). It's apparently AU$21 or US$15/month.
2. I said "…behind the paywall in *early* November" but it's just "November". Sorry.

Need more info? Here's a follow-up video with a look at the file, more information on what's happening, and a workaround so you can still access the #Pantone color books in in #Adobe apps after November:
