title: Do I need a MSDN subscription
body: <p>I'm thinking about buying Visual Studio Pro with MSDN, but I'm not sure if I would really need MSND access. I've never dealt with MSDN so I have a couple of questions. I mainly want to develop apps for Windows 8, 8.1 and 7, and I just can't see what exactly I will get out of a MSDN subscription.</p>
  
  <p>What are the greatest advantages that it offers? I know about being able to download many software at my subscription level, but I don't really need it. Doesn't visual studio provide a way to test your software on many WIN-RT, Win 8 devices so you don't have to download and install all the different operating systems on your own system? </p>
  
  <p>Maybe there is something here I haven't figured out? Can you guys tell me how beneficial has been to have a MSDN subscription for you?</p>
