.Mac membership renewal Jun12 '07

Boy, things have really changed with online storage solutions, over the past few years.

Only a couple of years ago, there was no Box.net, Amazon S3, or Google Docs.

In those days, I relied on Apple's iDisk, with a subscription to .Mac.

I used my iDisk to create photo galleries, sync files, and share calendars. These days, I can do those things with any of the services mentioned above, which leaves my .Mac membership in limbo.

Should I renew, with the hope that .Mac will eventually come out with some exciting new features, or let it lapse?

I'm assuming Leopard will offer continued expansion of .Mac features, so I'm inclined to renew.

Although the excitement level is just not there anymore, like it once was.
