Amazon Cloud Drive
reference www.guardian.co.uk/technology/2011/apr/03/john-naughton-amazon-cloud-drive-google-sony Amazon launched thier new cloud drive service which allows a user to store up to 5 GB for free in a digital locker. If the user wants more storage the cost is 1 dollar per GB per year. Any files stored in the digital locker can then be streamed to any device that the user owns. So for example if a user uploads their music library, they can stream the music to their phone, computer, laptop, IPOD etc. Amazon will store any MP3 file purchased in the Amazon store in the users cloud at the above rates. This allows Amazon a corner on store purchases, cloud storage and streaming, a unique monopoly or should I say triopoly.
