I hope this encourages Dropbox to venture further into streaming services. I store my entire music library in Dropbox, but I've never come across a feasible way to access that media on the go / from my mobile devices.

On the other hand, Cloud Drive nailed that use case perfectly, but getting my music into the system would require lots of tedious manual uploading.




Having used Amazon Cloud Player quite a bit, as well as other similar web services (lala, grooveshark), I can say that Cloud Player is the worst web based music player I've used. Can anyone comment on Google Music, or iCloud?


Google music is great. No complaints. (well one, I don't have album art for everything I've ripped in a format that it groks.)


Google Music works great at what it's intended to do. Play your music from anywhere.

That said, I've recently realized that I don't really like my music. That is, I'm much more interested in effective music discovery apps like Pandora, Grooveshark, and Turntable.fm.

Can't wait to see the Google+ spin on Google Music...


Google Music seems to work well (and works great on a TouchPad) but I still haven't gotten 1/50th of my music collection uploaded.


I just want apple to make my itunes collection available to me on any computer I'm on ... hopefully that happens sometime soon, so I don't have to pick the songs/albums/playlists I want to listen to that week and sync them to my iphone.


Why are you unhappy with Cloud Player?
