Any company that mediates between a bunch of other companies which each provide similar complementary products/services will always be in business. Dropbox is aiming to support every system under the sun. Android, Windows, Linux, Mac OSX and all the hardware that they run on. Thats why Dropbox is bigger than Apple's iCloud. Apple isnt going to manufacture every device you own. But you will want your files on every device you own. Lets say you have the following: Samsung phone, ipad, windoze at work and a linux system you hack on at home. Install dropbox and you have all your files everywhere. Hell I dont even want my own devices. I want to be able to go anywhere, use any make of OS/hardware and have all my stuff available to me. Why? Because its so damn convenient. Dropbox is building that. And its a very solid business business model. Again any company that mediates between a bunch of other companies which each provide similar complement products/services will always be in business. Dropbox is infrastructure. And one that creates a huge convenience for the end user.
