RAM,
Agreed. I doubt I'll move from Dropbox anytime soon. It just works and is platform independent. To me, that makes all the difference. iCloud drive? I may use it for inconsequential docs and such but that's about it. Apple is going to have to work _really_ hard to get people to switch to it from other cloud storage services.
I do see people who are already deeply invested in the Apple ecosystem or are new to the Apple ecosystem using it. Not because it's better or worse than its cloud competitors but due to the integration. Once they're set up from the start they may not have reason to use anything else.
