If I were Dropbox I'd be really worrying now. All of the big 3 has it's well-integrated cloud storage -- so far Dropbox was the de-facto cloud storage for Apple

  Except that DropBox is still cheaper, has a good app, stores file revision history, syncs across various operating systems. Dropbox always seemed to me to be a bit more sophisticated product than just "I want a backup in the Cloud" type thing, and I doubt anyone who's using it more than just a simple one-computer/one-OS backup system will leave. And I guess it gets most of its revenue from business accounts anyway?

  It's true, to some degree they should be worried. However, I'm not sure how much they actually have to fear. While I do like the new Continuity features (and I'm somewhat of a cloud skeptic), I don't see myself sharing files over iCloud with my friends anytime soon. Another thing that strikes me is, while I do use Dropbox a lot to sync across my devices, and those devices are almost always Macs, I'm also a toxic Dropbox user. Dropbox should not want to keep me as a "customer": I'm on the free plan, totally maxed out storage space by taking part in every conceivable promo, relatively high bandwidth usage, across a lot of devices. There is no possible reason for Dropbox to want me continue using them.
