I did my entire library, over 100 gig. Took about 3 days, but now I can call up any pic on iPhone, iPad or whatever. Doesn't take up too much room on my iOS devices as it only has thumbnails there, until you click on a pic. So far I like it. Yes I know it's not a professional program.
Yes, even though my upload is not complete, I can access whatever was uploaded overnight on my iPhone or at iCloud.com. It is very cool, especially to scroll back to pictures from long time ago during some downtime at work which I normally wouldn't do if I'm sitting at my Mac at home trying to get something done.
Apple's pricing is not competitive with other providers but, then again, the experience is not as unified and fluid with other providers as it is (finally) with Apple.
I do use other online photo sites (Smugmug, Flickr, Picturelife) but, other than Smugmug, these were purely for redundancy and backup.
Just hoping to figure out a way for my family to have access to my entire iCloud Photo Library without having to do some awkward workaround.
