Cloud is a good thing? In its place, yes. But who remembers mainframes? Maybe you are not old enough for that, Scott. When the mainframe goes down, life stops. Or at least computer life stops. And you are at the mercy of the mainframe or in this case cloud, operators. No update. Well yeah there would be updates. And maybe the update you just got broke the app that you've been using quite happily. You know how people sort of weight on upgrades to see how they go? With this,, it doesn't seem like you would have that option. I'm certainly OK with subscription services that I use on a monthly basis, such as Apple Music etc. Although there was that little rumor going around stating that Apple was considering dropping downloadable music that you purchase on iTunes. That would be a definite showstopper for me. If I really like something, I want to own it. I don't want to have to keep paying for every damn month. Mary
