I find the problem that most people have with cloud services is a basic misunderstanding of what they are and how they work.

People view them as back up / storage services when the reality is while most of them are just that they are also primarily sync services.

Now there is nothing wrong with sync services when they are used properly, as in the asset placed on the service should never be the only copy of the asset.

With services like dropbox and copy.com I find people screw up mostly when they move an asset into the local sync folder rather than place a copy of the asset in the local sync folder.

Admittedly while in a rush I've done that very thing which is why I now keep my local sync folders on a unique drive so any moving of assets results in a copy action by default.
