Well, I tried Office 365 customer preview for three months. I loaded my 50+ GB of data from Dropbox into Skydrive and gave it a try. I tried my best to like it but it just doesn't compare... Files got corrupted, files never got uploaded to Skydrive, ..... Skydrive just isn't there. Now for Office 2013 (365) - I love the new interface. But that's personal preference. I like the new Visual Studio 2012 / Office 2013 look - much more minimalistic, easier to focus on the text in my opinion. I hate how it makes saving to the hard drive more difficult - big negative imo.
So, 3 months ago I decided to go 100% Google. Having used Google Drive (Documents) back in the day extensively, I went there. Uploaded 80+GB of my data to Google and haven't looked back since. Having all my documents available, with no sync errors, online - without having to worry about files on my hard drive has been nice. I love the concurrent backups of Google Documents and how it's easy to share stuff to anyone. I even got myself a Chromebook and am enjoying mobility with all my data at a higher level - iPhone 5 tethering.
I don't see $99/year or $9.99/mo being a good thing for Office 2013. I'm not going to pay for it. I get everything for free with Google Drive - and I use Google Spreadsheets extensively (formulas, scripts, etc...). If the price was less, I'd go for it. Goodbye Microsoft.
