I do like both but I dislike when the cloud becomes neccesary. I don't like Steam games because I've had trouble accessing my games sometimes. I play fine one day the next the game won't open. Same computer same everything. It's happened more than once and it's a pain sometimes to get it going again, especially unlike Amazon there is no HELP button to get immediate help with the problem and they don't even respond to emails.

I don't like the decrease in onboard memory for the newer kindles forcing you to keep more of your books in the cloud instead of in your kindle.

I wouldn't buy Office Online. When I need an Office program I need it. I don't want it unavailable just because my modem or internet provider is having problems.

The cloud's great for emergency backup or transfering files and remote access but I don't want to need it for routine use.
