RE: in the Cloud ...

Amazon S3 seems to be a good choice, especially since they keep improving their streaming capabilities.
During the days when I was able to write off the Amazon S3 storage costs as part of my business, I was experimenting with it, and it worked fine for streaming to my Squeezebox Touch. It still gets to be a bit steep if you're intending to store a lot of high definition format files (24/192), because these FLACs are sizeable. But the monthly charge is steadily going down, and I think this service is competitively priced.
If memory serves, I was paying 11 cents per gigabyte back then. Not sure how much is it now.
