Why would i pay to store my data when i can buy 1 TB for under $100, and dropping. What will it cost me, and how long will it take for me to upload and download this?  why should I accept a performance hit when for $400 PC I can  access this instantly from hard drive?  why would i pay for apps when I can get for the same functions for free?  And if i'm the type that needs to access my data, i'll buy a $300 netbook shove a 500 gig har drive and physically carry the damn thing with me and use my wireless broadband to upload and download.
