The Dropbox thing is exactly what I was thinking of when I was writing my original comment.

Here is the reference: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9224

The basic summary is that a HN commenter suggested Dropbox was redundant because you could do some convoluted setup that 0.1% of the world would understand and 0.001% would actually want to use (and yes, that’s still a few hundred thousand people) and overall that aged poorly.

Much appreciated. :)

Edit: shame it wasn't about the band and the song though.
