My critical media (documents and photos) are online and on local storage. Online storage gives you the 'forever' capability - perhaps to a fault. I don't bother with manual backups anymore. If my local data was lost I can easily restore it with an internet connection. Consumer stuff (music/video) is already available via streaming and as connectivity (access and speed) matures it will be the 'new' storage format. IMO.
