Need to just go ahead and let you store unlimited songs in music.

250 songs for free, any more than that and you have to pay about $25 per year, essentially the same thing that Apple charges for iTunes match.

Just a general note on Amazon's level of creepiness, I got an email this week congratulating me for playing more songs than the average Prime Music user and it also told me which song I played the most. I know Amazon uses this data to sell me more stuff, but Amazon just never gets talked about regarding privacy and they have a pretty significant window into our lives too. Just imagine their FireFly technology scouring through your photos picking out brands to build a better profile of you.

I'm already an iTunes Match subscriber so that wouldn't do me any good.

I think Google Play gives you 20,000 free uploads before they start charging the music industry's amnesty fee.

Ya, I'm doing 5.7 GBs right now Its all the full file size of my photos, probably 1,000 or so since I take a few bursts. Never did delete the shitty ones.

Then I got to do my vacation from a few years prior next.

Competition on cloud storage has gotten crazy, and I like it. We definitely win! Just add another reason to why being a Prime member is the best value out there.

The only downside to this is that the unlimited storage does not count videos or documents. 5 gb goes pretty fast with videos of my son.

Looks like an awesome option for my Wife's photography business. Yay to (mostly) free unlimited cloud backup!
