Price per gigabyte is too high. I don't need to be able to max out my SATA bandwidth.

Spoken like someone who has never actually used an SSD. It isn't just the bandwidth: latency is also considerably lower. It's expensive, sure, and very few people "need" it, but practical speed increase is a full order of magnitude in many cases (I'm only using SATAII, also, which my SSD more than saturates. Upgrading to SATAIII should net me a 50% increase or more in bandwidth). But then, so is the cost/gigabyte.

I don't consider any of these as "storage". They're like grocery bags, you don't "store" stuff in them. If anything, those are all temporary data devices. To me, "Storage" means "long-term".
