Agreed. Needs are different. For professional photography, they
certainly have their place. I don't use it much, but when I do, I
really do.

I'm so far behind the trailing edge, I can water ski.

Now, don't get me wrong. I'm a YUGE fan of cloud services and use them
extensively. But to use cloud services of a one-lung part-supplier
doesn't make much sense. Apple, Microsoft, Google, Dropbox, Amazon,
etc., are pretty good with cloud services. "Charlie's Cheeseburgers
and Cloud Server" isn't. Even Adobe's "cloud" service with
Photoshop/Lightroom doesn't make sense as the products are tied
together and you lose the modularity of system design.
That said, I've been working on building up a new in-home server, that
will be placed in our fire and windproof "bunker" that will
automatically back up to a remote server location. I've been
cloud-based for a few years now with Zone-10, but this takes it a bit
further.
