I'm reminded of an exchange I had with a company that was doing the whole your data lives in our cloud and that lets you share it and I'm over here like most of the time I don't want to share that, but when I do it's called a file and I can attach it to an email or stick it on shared storage or put it on a thumb stick and hand it to someone or make it available on my own web site or... Plus I can use it when your company fails or my Internet is down or there's a DDOS. Files are great. Use them.
