I'm also curious to see what happens in the beginning, and if it hits the elbow, when there isn't sufficient storage space on the network to meet demand.

Already anticipated that. We can just run the Storj client on your traditional cloud VPS. If there is market need those can be booted up in a couple of seconds by our team or anyone who wants to set that up.
Because VPS providers profit margins are so high vs a typical home user, they will be eventually replaced, but it allows Storj to scale pretty quickly using the traditional cloud as network nodes.
