Yesterday I noticed a big old announcement on the home (splash) page of Amazon.com announcing their new Cloud Drive for their customers. I don’t usually jump on board new things until it’s been tested and proven by the guinea pigs users… but this time, I lept in feet first!
Amazon’s Cloud Drive
Amazon‘s Cloud Drive is a two-fold feature. My impression is that it’s primary function is for your MP3 collection and you ability to access it and play your music from anywhere. The secondary function is to stash files and such that you want to be able to get at from anywhere.

For customers, we get an instant 5GB of disk space, free, to do with what we want. Amazon stresses the redundancy of their back up processes and that anything we put on their Cloud is safe.
When you first log into the Cloud Drive, you have 4 folders. Documents, Music, Pictures and Videos. It’s obvious that they would like you to use the Cloud Drive for more than just music, but for the moment, I’ll only trust it to my music.
But the beauty of this new medium from Amazon is the interactive processes regarding your MP3s.
