Yeah I guess there are subtle differences. And there is probably room for both, just like how there is room for more than 1 in the current cloud storage scene.

What bothers me is when crypto's choose terrible names. Siacoin is one of them, IMO. A name like Storj is not awesome, but a lot better and has a certain vibe that the internet community likes. I wish Siacoin would have chosen a better brand name. I think it matters a lot in today's world.

I am holding on to my tiny amount of Siacoin (only $50 or so) just for the fun of it. I expect good gains but nothing huuuuuge. Not like Ethereum, NEO, etc., it just doesn't have that potential. That's why I mainly stick my large investments into projects that do have that potential, and keep a small assortment of coins like SC mostly for fun. I noticed that at some point, collecting different kinds of crypto almost becomes like a hobby too! That's why I have 4000 Dogecoins too! Just have to have some Dogecoins! It is my donation, to give value to Doge, by hodling them and not selling!
