For the life of me I cannot understand the reasoning of folks who think that the "cloud" is going to be their saving grace. When you remove ports and optical drives, you remove any possibility that you could use locally stored files for playback.
Sorry, but I will not allow myself to be dependent upon an internet connection to be able to do my work or listen to music. By having locally available files, I am the "master of my universe" - my apologies to Seinfeld.
Cloud storage/connectivity is *nice*, but I will not cede access to my files to an environment that is not 100% available, 100% of the time...
