But by the same token, Apple's approach will be mostly geared towards the consumer and not the prosumer or professional - if their prior track record is any indication. I've said this before, for my pictures, I'd rather not deal with a cloud based storage solution - especially one that is as expensive as Apple's (compared to other cloud providers).Some saner thoughts on all of this:

But my own investigation took me back to the WWDC Keynote, where they demonstrated the simple interface of Photos and offered a peak behind the curtain at the deeper software underneath.
I'd consider myself as a hobbyist rather then a prosumer, though I have shot events for $$ in the past, its something that I enjoy and choose not to take it further. That being the case Aperture was a great tool, where as iPhoto was not. LR has a lot to offer but Aperture was better suited to my usage needs.
to summarize, Apple is coming out with a new photos app, but imo, its more of an iPhoto replacement then an Aperture replacement and given my image libraries are about 200gb of storage, there's no way I'm willing to use a cloud based solution.
