Q: Google Drive or Dropbox instead of iCloud

Wonder if there will be any plans to support non-Apple cloud storage options like Google Drive or Dropbox.  Apple's iCloud prices are not cheap.

    You mean Apple support for Non-Apple product or services?

    How could they, the service or servers are not theirs to control.

    Actually I use Microsoft's Onedrive. I'm not big on cloud storage but I ended up with Microsoft's solution a while back and I get more free space. I have not been a big fan of iCloud drive but I guess it works for someone all in with Apple products. Certainly plenty of good options out there that probably are more cross platform compatible which is important for some. I think the real question is how dedicated are you to Apple ecosystem?
