That was my reaction too. People do but I'm not sure I understand. One thing, you could be much more easily on the hook for any copyright issue even if accidental. Also you're paying for a new service. I'd rather just occasionally do some local maintenance and pay the $2 a month extra to keep my machine running which I'd likely do anyhow.
