 If you're a Mac user, and if you have been long waiting for Apple's cloud-based services, your waiting period has finally come to an end. Apple launched its cloud-based services, called iCloud, in beta version.

All users with an Apple ID can now access iCloud Beta by visiting iCloud.com. Just like Google's web-based productivity suite, iCloud has web version of Mail, Contacts, Calendar, Find my iPhone and obviously iWork. iCloud is also an online music streaming service apart from being a web-based productivity suite.

In order to store Music online, from where you can stream anytime later, you will have to purchase space in iCloud. The first 5 GB is totally free of cost. Add 10 GB more and you'll have to pay $20. Also, $40 for 20 GB and $100 for 50 GB of additional space for storing music on iCloud.

Update
As of now, Apple has enabled only developers with an Apple ID to log in to iCloud Beta. The company says that the service will be available in this fall.
