Indeed. Offering for free something that gets cheaper as time passes, I don't if can be considered as clever marketing or not.

I believe that it was clever marketing when google first did it when gmail was first released. I feel like the storage is only part of the service, it's access to your files everywhere that they are really trying to sell.

Knowing that most cars are bound to depreciate quickly wouldn't stop me from accepting a nice, new, free one.
