Hi all,
I was massively interested in the new iMovie Theater feature that got announced last week, instant availability of all your home movies on any of your Apple devices? Fantastic. A user of iMovie previously, I thought it'd be incredibly useful.
However, today was the first chance I had to use it, and well I feel it's a little bit limited? Shot the video on my iPhone, created the movie via iMovie for iOS, shared it to iMovie Theater. Worked just as expected. But when I come to look at my iCloud storage data, I find iMovie eating up quite a large chunk of it (I only have the free 5GB iCloud storage). Now I can understand the feature being charged for, maybe like iTunes Match? But the amount it was hyped up last week, I expected it to work like Photostream, with a free iCloud account I can see you running out of space pretty quickly!
