5 million Mac OS X users would mean 5 million iDisk users if Apple does not charge for .Mac services. I'm a developer who was considering providing functionality that helps integrate my application with iDisk. Now that Apple is charging $100, how many potential customers for this feature did I just lose?

Can Apple expect to get more than 10% of its OS X customers to pay $100 for .Mac when only about 10% of its customers have payed for OS X (if 5 million = 20%, 800k units last quarter = 3.2 million units this year, 80% keep OS X = 2.5 million users of OS X did not pay).

Any other developers considering iDisk functionality in their applications?
