from what i have read/seen, cloud storage is for such as online games/films/music.
the idea that you can watch a film direct to your tv or play games online withouit having to own or download them.
so mabe the servers are set up to deliver large files smoothy to lots of people at the same time.
so if its files, it does not matter as if say they dowload a film, to watch once downloaded, its not going to make much difference.
but say they watch the films as they stream, i guess then it may make a difference.
i supose (i could be wrong) that the cloud name is simply to make it sound more user friendly. a bit like an ipod is simply a pocket pc. but calling it an ipad or ipod makes it sound more friendly to people.
so to be honest i do wonder if this term is simply a marketing thing, rather anything technolgically different.
