I read somewhere that this required connecting to Microsoft's cloud? Is that true?

It is. So not really that great, imo. Just another rent seeking behavior to force a current subscription.

Don't get me wrong, I'm certain it scratches an itch many people have, just the fact they put it in the cloud is a hell of a lot of needless complexity and antiuser.
