The Cloud vs Ownership

        There are many pros and cons to the cloud-based media/software/etc but, in my opinion, their are about the same amount of each. The pros of this technology is that you do not have to worry about your product getting lost or broken. You'll also be able to organize all of your personal favorite books or movies easily. A con of this is that your information will be distributed to third parties. You can argue that this isn't a con but if you think about it in the way that they are stealing your information and making a profit out of it without you receiving a cut. Doesn't that sound unfair? I believe that if your information is gonna be distriputed to other parties than you should either.
1. Grant permission to the party to do so
or
2. Receive money for the information distriputed.
But in my opinion, your information should only be distributed if you gave permission for so.

        The physical property that I can see working with this technology is: Movies, books, cooking recipes, taxes, bills, legal documents, and other types of material items.
