Microsoft released the first official test build of its Office Web Apps on Thursday. To access the build (that is, the free, consumer-focused build, not the corporate-focused Microsoft Online or on-premise ones), testers must be among a pre-approved, select group. They also must have a free Windows Live account, so they can get to the web-ified Office apps via Microsoft's free SkyDrive storage service.

Thats what I would like to know, will this be free or payee service? and the data where will that be cached too during its creation/edit process how secure will the user's data be?

Suppose the question apply's to all company's wanting to launch such services.
