Games can easily kill 16GB of storage, no matter what other media you might have on the device, and apps in general are bigger than they used to be with Retina resources. And "the cloud" really does me no good on a plane or a road trip or anywhere else fast wifi may not be available.
16GB is small enough to require active storage management, even for fairly casual users. It's becoming a real issue.
