Do the photo steam photos take up space on your device? That's what I'm confused about.

I do not believe that the stream does, but the initial photo has to come from a device so it's taking up space on one of your devices I would believe. If someone can correct me please do so.

I used to be bothered that I can't edit photostream. Then I realized photosteam is not permenant all together. Photos disappear on their own in 30 days. So I stopped caring about whats on there anymore.

Lets say you get divorced or have a bad breakup, do you want to see photos with that person through the first 30 days, which is the hardest part of a breakup. Just because you dont have a reason, doesn't mean there isnt one.

I've waited with Photostream until I can have more control over whats in it.

Pretty much what I've done.

You can decide what is in photo stream... just delete them from iPhoto... I have about 5,000 or so photos,but only imported what i wanted then you click on them and select what you want in photo stream....
