Well, think of ICloud as an imap server for your data.  It propagates your 
data/media to all your devices.    Then back up your data to time machine or 
manually do it so you can sleep well at night.   Personally I've never been 
bitten by apples iMap server , so I guess I'll just keep trusting them.  Knock 
on wood.  
Anyway,  iCloud really isnt storing all your data just noting changes and 
making sure every device has the same data.  It is a great free service and 
isn't about data mining at all.  If it was it goes against everything Apple is 
about.  Just my opinion though.
