I"ve been a Corel PSP user for quite a few years, also. I like their product and their pricing model (especially after Adobe went to the subscription service). I update every other year when they have it on sale. No, they're not as popular as Adobe, but it's done everything I need it to do and then some. I'm also not a heavy cut and paster, I like to have everything well tuned when I take the photo and generally use PSP only for a bit of healing/removing dirt, hair, etc and some sharpening or minor white balancing.
For the price, you just can't beat it.
