Steve Duplessie's recent post Reverse Cloud Economics, caught some interesting reactions in comments and from StorageBod. I think he was looking to get the juices flowing onto his new re-branded blog - and he did!
Anyway, here's my video response to Steve's blog where I say the things he did not: that selling cloud storage by the pound results in an inverted cost benefit. The thing that makes the next great enterprise storage product successful is the value add that comes with it provided - such as offloading tasks that waste a lot of time and have serious risks associated with them.
Of course, the type of storage used by the cloud service provider matters a great deal. 3PAR Cloud Agile partners have the best cloud storage infrastructure technology.
