I understand why companies like Amazon and Apple are pushing this cloud thing; it's a money maker for them. I also understand why consumers are interested in it since flash memory is still pricey. However, when flash memory becomes as cheap as regular memory, who will care about the cloud?
it's already pretty damn cheap. when one can store 2000 photos on a $10 card, it's almost not worth transferring to a regular HD; just make a copy and buy another card. i'll trust the flash card as much as I trust the platter.
