As a person who has had decades in the media industry, you can not start your project as a way to promote your ego, even if it is vicariously through your spoiled children.

Do they realise that they need to concentrate on what their market wants? Sounds like a marketing exercise, but if you do not put an emphasis on what your end viewers want to watch, then they will not be interested. I have young children, I am not interested in their project, and my youngest was not interested enough to sit in front of the first video for more than five seconds.

Lastly, they seem to have no idea that every idea to screen takes months to decades to preproduce. You don’t just dress your kids up and put them in the play room with a first edit one day script. A good show is built on dozens of layers of ideas layered over months or years. Most shows have thrown out dozens of ideas as good as or better than the single idea of this show before they get to sewing up princess costumes for their princesses. Oh, and they use the best talent possible available at the time… not their own kids (with the exception of Will Smith). Using your own kids reeks of low standards and low end nepotism.

Bonus…iCloud makes it supper easy to share. For transferring to your own computer, Photo stream copies it to your computer weather you are standing next to it or in another state.

It is, I have to admit, a cool effect to immediately share in a flash, in a flashy way. Same for the phone. Sharing content ect, might be what sets it apart. Who doesnt like a lot of “bumping”!

QUESTION: Does BUMP save the pics you bump on to their website, or the hard drive of that computer. Likely it is their site. You probably can save from their site, but look into WHO can also be sharing your photos.

Nowadays, If I am correct, if a password is shared, you may download itunes from another account by logging in, download content to music folder, then log out. Home sharing is also possible across multiple accounts to share music. Plus, who wants to have to cycle thru their Dads awesome Roger Whittaker albums and he sure doesnt want to sift thru a bunch of Beastie Boys, and so forth.

Contacts are huge. I am sure people want no confusion of syncing ur dads contacts in with your kids. Plus if only one “head of house hold” can turn it on contact syncing…. I can see the arguments now!

Credit card info….If I had a kid, and thank God I dont, I would NOT want him access to an account credit card. Just feed em iTunes gift cards every so often. The apple store just started carrying prepaid amounts on their gift cards.

5GB per one device is a ton easier to manage and can be done. You can manage your storage backup to what is most important to you. For instance, who cares about a back up of Words with Friends?

As for calenders, you can turn on sharing of certain ones u create, with others. This allows delicate calender events to be private and only share your “family” calender. Plus a family combined calender would be a mess and you would see events you dont care about.

Last, “find my iphone” turned off….scary. I use it everyday to find my lost phone under the couch using another computer and this feature.
