These huge corporations really should have pushed this out sooner. Now everyone knows that the cloud cannot be trusted (especially when Sony is involved).

How would they know if the music was legally purchased or not?

I smell a wet bloated rat here folks... Don't say I didn't warn you. Corporations touting BS about putting "anything" into the consumers hands (especially "control") is a bold face lie & it would be naive to think otherwise.

Falling for this maple sweetened stick of honey glazed horse shite for the sake of convenience & their supposed ability to take care of 'your property' is a ruse.

I know I'm being redundant, but I just want this to be on record so I have perfected right to say "I told you so" when the bubble breaks.

it would be good as long as pricing reflects a few concerns. if i can't lend or re-sell, the content isn't the same quality spec-wise as the physical version, and we cut out the middle-man (i.e. retail) completely, i'd be willing to pay $1-2 for older stuff and $3-5 for new releases. i'd even pay $7-10 if same day as theaters. anything else would be a complete and total rip-off.

Correct me if I'm wrong, I've only been doing this all my life... But wouldn't it be so much easier to just use your existing connection to the net and turn an old machine into a small server? Or buy a new cheap one and do the same. Regardless, my brother and I have had our own music, movies, and software files accessible from any internet-enabled device for forever.

Why pay some company and risk them going through your things?

I was thinking the same thing, as you and LordRuss. this is just bs. Im going to laugh my ass off when there severs and clients get hacked for the useless data that will be held on the so called "cloud".

Stupid questions are for google. Learn how to use it, because everyone has a stupid question every now and then.

@buxtahuda & Dmite30... That's kinda what I've been ranting about the "cloud" for some time now... If I can be grossly basic for a moment... It would be like you guys leaving your file cabinets in my house for a while. Locked or not, they're in 'my' house & basically under my responsibility. Given & that being the case, let's say I get a wild hair & have discerned that I have the right to know what I'm protecting for you guys. If your cabinet is unlocked, I'll just go through it & possibly discriminate what's of importance to protect (or not). If the files are locked, I'll just unlock them (because it's for your own good; remember now 'my house') & the same process holds.

But now if I find illegal information; ill gotten music, documents, movies, kiddie porn, snuff flicks, my little ponies - then I get to report you to the authorities & be a hero too. All because it's my house.

Nope... Them folks can keep their cloud & pound sand. I'll loose my own files & define my own legalities, thank you anyway.

Another method to squeeze some more cash out of the already cash strapped wee man.

Trust the cloud - Sony has already proved that to be a loss leader...
