Given that Gartner estimated OSX as having only about 10% of the desk/laptop market share in 2011, the idea that Dropbox is going to be put out of business by iCloud is laughably ignorant. Unless Apple decides to make iCloud available to Windows users, but IMHO that seems unlikely. The competition isn't much better on the MS side. Windows has the bulk of the desktop/laptop users, but it's pretty unlikely for them to…

You can use iCloud on Windows... Check the website.
Dropbox executed well. But where can Dropbox expand to? Unless dropbox can get better and better, eventually the competition will catch up. Better device and product integration? That will require more and more cooperation from Windows, Apple, and Google.

I'd quite like it if they had Music syncing option, mind.
If Dropbox solves this, they're golden: http://xkcd.com/949/ If they don't, they'll die.
