So many people said it doesn't store twice the data as you claimed. That was it. Of course there is some form of cache. But that's true for just about anything web based to increase performance. Sorry that some of us didn't explain the way the web works to you too.

Go back and read the actual comments. I simply said it doesn't use twice the storage as you claimed. And the other guy says that it is cloud based. While he doesn't explain caching, he is correct. Those were the only two (so many) comments that 'Jumped' on the thread and told you you were wrong. The rest were either in support or explaining caching.

My phone says 1.7gb photos. 400mb photo stream. Obviously not twice. Ohh and my ipad says 300mb photo stream. They both have identical streams. So obviously apple is doing some intelligent self clearing caching based on viewed photos.
LOL, the fact that you attempt to come across as a smart guy saying 'that's what i said' and then use wrong terminology is amusing, i'm not going to respond to your comment. You win LOL

I guess I'm not so smart, you'll have to point out my mistake in terminology?
