Dismayed about the Comixology Amazon Transition

Ubooquity calibre
  1. Ubooquity is a free, lightweight and easy-to-use home server for your comics and ebooks.
    Have you looked at Ubooquity or Calibre for hosting your book files? You could host them on your machine if you got the room. You could then use BackBlaze for Cloud storage. It's more of a object data store than a Cloud service - ie, it's just holding data, not trying to give you an awesome interface to view it like comiXology. It costs something like $0.005 USD per GB per month. So 1TB would be $5 a month USD. Not sure if that matches Dropbox pricing.
