It's not really where you are now that matters, but where you end up going. And Drew's a really smart guy and maniacally focused on his company. It's quite possible he sees things about their market that we don't.

They also sell extra space, shared with Picasa.
With Dropbox, 100GB would cost me $199/year.
I've been with Dropbox forever (I have account #315) but man, it is tempting to snag 80GB for the price of half a tank of gas.
Convenience is obviously the primary loss. But I'm a nerd. It would likely be easy to figure out some way of auto-syncing my whole music folder.
My other primary usage for Dropbox (and incidentally the motivation for its inception) is as a way to transfer files to other people. There's nothing like being able to host your own .html file within your own dropbox with literally zero effort. That said, a hybrid of the two seems best -- ridiculously cheap bulk storage, combined with the convenience of Dropbox when needed.
How about Open Graph or the Facebook Platform?
Think if dropbox has a platform. (like word processors saving directly to Dropbox - the defacto cloud storage network)
