Got To Get You Into My Cloud

I'm not sure I have my head wrapped completely around what this Cloud stuff is (also: youngsters' music - I can't understand what the hell the singer's singing!!!), but apparently Paul McCartney is the first superstar to load his library onto it:
Over the next three years, HP will compress more than a million McCartney tracks, clips, photos, reviews, experiments and ephemera into a cloud-based collection the musician can access from anywhere in the world. That is light-years ahead of digging out old tapes from beneath his studio in England and literally baking them to reverse physical deterioration.
"That amazed me when I heard that one," McCartney told Wired.com. "We've actually got to bake my old tapes before we can play them? It's a bit like the steam engine, you know. A bit old-fashioned."
I know what this reminds you of, and you're right: The Rutger's Women's Basketball Team.  Never forget!
