I can also store my PSD's in the cloud also. For movie playback, i'll just grab what I want when I want to watch it from .torrents, then delete afterwards. I think the days of physical ownership or even collections stored locally are drawing to a close.

Carbonite is cloud backup. Just FYI.
I do both. Local and cloud backups. Carbonite is very secure, very fast, and very cloud.
