I've kept my Calibre library in Dropbox for many years and used it on several different devices (currently on 2 laptops and a Surface tablet). Without any major problems. But then I actually pay attention to what I'm doing and I never have Dropbox just running in the background on any of said devices. Neither do I have Dropbox automatically starting with Windows.
So yes, it's possible to use cloud storage, IF YOU KNOW HOW IT SHOULD BE DONE AND WHAT TO WATCH FOR. The issue is that the majority of casual users know neither.
