I'm a happy prime member since it's inception but this cloud storage deal doesn't seem like a
good deal to me.[COLOR="Silver"]
But it's FREE. UNLIMITED -- FREE. For photos. Other types of files will count against the storage limits.
Repeat: photos are free. You can store 1 terabyte of photos for $0.
Well, ok, you still have to pay the prime fee, so it is actually $100/year. So if you are only signing up for the cloud drive than that would be a consideration. But since I already have it for the free shipping and the movies, etc etc.
Of course this is all part of the way Amazon is kinda evil as a company (they destroy every other company they can and lose lots of money in the process just for the sake of destroying other companies)...
