My best explanation, - in lieu of too much elucidation, - is any website, or hosting site that you have to pay a 3rd party ISP to get to.
If someone like "Unwired.com" gives you some hard drive space at their facility on their line-of-sight link, - then woo-hoo. But something like Unwired.com isn't cheap; and therefore not viable.
In this case, - me saying the cloud, - is anything beyond the standard, 600ft of CAT5 or wireless connectivity on your own router.
One cannot get effective internet access that makes music "usable" outside your home, and it's not going to improve: IMO.
"Asylums with doors open wide,
Where people had paid to see inside,
For entertainment they watch his body twist
Behind his eyes he says, 'I still exist.'"
