The cloud is just someone elses computer, you could pay 19.99 a year for 100 gbs of storage on some shady corporations server somewhere for them to inevitably jack up the price. Or you could not be an idiot and buy a 128 gb flash drive for 14.99 one time and have that storage forever.

TBF that's forever until your house burns down with it inside

or the drive wasn't plugged in for a long time, causing the flash storage to degrade
