I'm wondering if there are plans/discussions to make the Media part of a umbraco a service like module. Perhaps I as a developer would like to use Azure Blob Storage, DropBox, Google Drive etc as the host for my media.
I recall this was an idea for v5, but how do we stand right now?
Media as a service?

Hi, media is handled by the filesystemprovider. You can already find an implementation of an Azure Blob provider created by Dirk Seefeld at http://our.umbraco.org/projects/backoffice-extensions/azure-blob-storage-provider
Writing a custom filesystemprovider is possible as you can see :-)
Right on! I was unaware of this. Perhaps getting a Google Drive-version shouldn't be that difficult.
