Because of this and the fact that it was clearly announced as a time-limited special, I never bothered to fill up my Amazon cloud drive with music, though I have to admit it's very convenient for mp3's I buy from Amazon since I can just have the music shuttled over there when I buy it and not have to download it right away.

I do sympathize with the OP but it was pretty clear last year that the huge storage space was a limited promo.
I know other people who are in the same boat. Thank goodness I have broadband! Although I pay for 30MB download speed I get about 5 to 15 depending on how bottlenecked the node is around here. Every Spring it acts up but it's better than dial-up by 100 times!

We have only one carrier this far out. All the others AT&T, Sprint and T-Mobile don't do well this far out. So we pay a little more then we would like but I need my 3G!
