So, it's currently vaporware (unless you leverage your GMail), but this looks like a possible solution to the vault issues that have plagued us (and perhaps DM FTP as well).
Just dropping this as a note in case Google makes an announcement before Atari does...

Well, hard to get too much real data on vaporware, but if you google for 'GDrive' this was the first link:

How about this one?

1 GB limit right now, but they "plan" on raising it.

They might do evil.
Honestly, it's a huge risk to store any vault (with luck we won't need too). Google has enough of my trust that I doubt we'd see large scale outages. I'd need to know a lot more about OpenOMy to trust them to that level.

True. Their name is pretty catchy though
