Re:Dropbox inventor determined to build the next Apple or Go... by wavephorm on Sunday January 15, 2012 @03:09AM (#3466695)
The main danger for Dropbox is the commoditization of cloud storage, and filesystem abstraction. Dropbox style sharing going to be commonplace, everything will interact with the cloud, and web apps will abstract data in ways that make the conventional metaphors of files and directories obsolete. Plus as Amazon improves their API's and competitors emerge, Dropbox will get squeezed from every possible direction. They should pump and and dump while the market's good.
