I think Filepicker have a good service that is worth paying for, but I have two problems with the change of their model:

1. At one week's notice projects that are using S3 storage out in the field will break and need recoding. If any of them are for example built by freelancers where clients have little knowledge of what's going on, the service will be the scapegoat.

2. It probably is not, but this sounds like a desperate search for sudden revenue. If this does not work out and the company abandons the product, then will all my Filepicker URLs and all my code stop working? In this case I would pay for the service, but right away migrate away from them.
