How many people want to rent space in the cloud to store all their photos? If our home did it we'd have to pay 2x $199 (200 GB each) or 2x $499 (500 GB each) per year -- plus buy computers with storage large enough to ferry this around (or external HDs). Apple offers "photostream" as a free, transactional mechanism to move photos from phone to computer -- the central storage and usage of photos remains at home. Why would I pay a cloud storage company $400 or even $1,000 per year to keep my own photos?
