Hey this is really sweet, and pretty much exactly what we were looking for. It's going to take a bit for me to send the bounty, but definitely glad to see this!

Hey, I like the design. I'm not a native english speaker, but I think 2 bits could be improved:
- 'fault-tolerant storage that is competitive against/compared to centralized...'
- 'When a file is uploaded to a storage provider...'
I also think the wall of text is a bit too long - and it's hard work to find the exact, minimal words to express what you need efficiently. I also think you should stress more that the files are chopped and encrypted before they leave the renter and no single host (or anyone without the file key for that matter) will be able to decode them.
Also this is sort of general public oriented content and you mention the target being app developers. I don't think the current information is tailored for that demographic...
But overall I like it :)

Also worth noting that Amazon S3 no longer powers dropbox, dropbox created their own datacenter that they use now.

Its an idea that stuck from somewhere... couldn't remember, but after some digging, I found it again:
From http://forum.sia.tech/topic/106/what-is-sia
"Above all else, Sia is infrastructure that lays the foundation for all apps which require remote data storage."
And I interpreted this as an indication that the interface with the home renter would be preferably made through 3rd party services, I guess also to unburden the final user from blockchain related complications. I may be wrong ofc, and the devs could probably weigh in and clarify their intentions.

The infographics do not need to target app developers! We would like a few that do, but we would also like infographics that target newer, nontechical users.

Sorry about the delay, but a bounty of 50,000 SC for this infographic has now been paid.
