Interesting to see people's take on this, alright. Typical polarisation
between the two methods; cloud and local-ROM. These days I'm oscillating
between the two: I no longer find it reasonable to keep my data on a
server subject to warrantless dragnet surveillance, but cloud storage is
just too awesome to pass up.
Right now, I'm using local-ROM (DVD, not bluray) to backup my data
medium-term, and I'm establishing a local cloud server that I can access
by WebDAV (think "dropbox") on my phone or laptop. If I set up RAID, I
get the same resilience as Google, with arbitrary storage, and as many
features as I care to bake in. OwnCloud is awesome for this so far,
can't wait for them to include self-updating like wordpress does.
