I find it bizarre that they don't allow for limited permission, given the growing awareness of security issues.
I only just signed up for Skydrive. Maybe I'll just use it for nonsensitive stuff, about which I'm willing to take more of a risk. But unless I move my Calibre library from Dropbox to Skydrive, I guess I'll stick with the Calibre server on my home network for book downloads.
