I think this is not a new rumour, but this is the first time that I have read details on how the system could be. The Google Online Storage System (GDrive?) could be for free up to 50Gb, and should be paid by the ads embedded in the storage website, a la Gmail. The report also tries to calculate the costs and the margin of the solution, but I think the calculations are too simple and bit naive.
Online Storage is not something new, but Google can monetize it to a scale that only them, Microsoft or Yahoo can do. 50Gb of storage for free is a lot of storage and I can guarantee you I have a lot of old stuff I could put there, saving space in my disks, in my house (physical space is relevant) and of course is more accesible than DVDs or CDs.
