There's a place for thinclients, but I doubt it will be the norm. Internet connections can be flaky and connecting to a cloud service can be madness in those situations.
Not only that, but many of these "cloud" services and media storage sites are shutting down as they are replaced with other things for various reasons, financial problems, popularity and etc. The "cloud" is in chaos right now and isn't dependable for storage.
I foresee a hybrid approach. Local storage and online interaction with services. If it can be done online, and done well, it will be.
