Am I the only one who thinks 5GB is pretty miserly in this day and age? Like someone else mentioned, I'm using almost all of mine just for device backups and mail. Unless this changes, Apple is punishing you for owning more iDevices. The more you have, the more backups you have, the more iCloud space you have to purchase. At the very least they need to change it so device backups don't count against the limit.
Also, their prices aren't that good for additional storage. $100/year for a total of 55GB? Microsoft and Amazon will give you that much for half the price. Not to mention, they introduced a HUGE price increase without anyone noticing. 20GB for $1/month ($120/year) once iCloud Drive is released, when right now it's $40/year for the same amount.
they are changing the pricing, its not that bad.
