Sorry, but I thought this was a photography forum!
Or is this more about jealousy? I notice some people are quite happy to photograph sporting events but seem to think that the rest of us should not? I think someone has an ulterior motive! Perhaps we should stay at home and swoon when we see his shots?
I have photographed one sports event and have no intention of shooting anymore sporting events.
If I was to go to the olympics as a punter then the camera would stay at home just like it does when I go to a concert for pleasure. I want to enjoy the show without having to look through a thousand 3 inch screens trying to capture a dot on the stage. The majority of people at these type if events just go for an I was there photo and totally forget about getting lost in the emotion of the event before them.
That's what my comment was aimed at.

Cloud storage won't be any good in 50 years when great grandchildren have no suitcase full of old photos to rummage in....

Microsoft SkyDrive and google docs. SkyDrive is currently offering 25gig free space for existing windows live users...

Full Terms & Conditions / Service Agreement here.
I imagine that other 'cloud' service providers have similar clauses, 'though I've not investigated any others.
So long as you don't use the share tool then that clause is irrelivant anyhow.
I find SkyDrive very useful along with drop box too...
