I think there are all categories:
- Users who only is interested in local music
- Users who want to own most of their music and have it locally but is
interested to use online streaming services for music discovery and
music they can't justify buying
- Users who mostly is interested in online streaming services but have a
small local library with music which aren't available on the online
streaming service
- Users who only is interested in online streaming services

The first variant is probably not that interested in a cloud based
solution, they have probably already now removed the mysqueezebox.com
settings in their LMS installation (if they have even registered on
mysqueezebox.com) and is already today using LMS as a standalone setup
without any dependencies to internet. I think it will be hard to
convince such users to use a cloud based solution, especially if they
aren't interested in any bells and whistles and is satisfied with their
current Squeezebox setup. 

All market trend reports I've seen indicates that physical music sales
is going down and mobile music and streaming services are going up.
I think it can partly be an age thing, I think a lot of people above 40
who already have a big local collection haven't seen the potential and
usefulness of online streaming services yet.
