I just see standardization moving to the forefront. To interact with ubiquitous technology, the winner is going to have the most open-feeling platform. That's why I see MS and Google having the edge. I don't want the coffee shop tables to be incompatible with the hardware on my wrist. Google and MS will care far less about that coffee shop table experience.

Even on their own platform, from my experience, Apple's cloud is awful. My music collection feels like it has been randomly scrambled. Some songs are duplicated, and some songs are inaccessible from some devices.
