Nest Camera & Hello

Hi all,
A friend of mine recently purchased a Ring doorbell and I was quite impressed with it so have since been looking up smart doorbells. I noticed that Nest have just released Nest Hello (in the USA - soon to be available here) to rival Ring. I've got a nest thermostat which I really like and would also like a couple of cameras for the front and rear of my property. However, its a bit vague when looking at the Nest Aware subscription plans. You can get 5 day cloud storage (which is all I would probably need) for £4 month/£40 year and on second cameras you can get a discount. However, it doesn't tell you what the discount is. If I end up with several cameras, it's going to get quite expensive, quite quickly. Does anyone have any ideas on what their pricing is for multiple cameras? Ring appears to be far more simple as for £8 per month, you are allowed cloud storage for unlimited cameras.
Many thanks

    We pay £8 for the first camera and £4 per camera after that -we have 4 in total so it's £20 a month.
    Ok not the cheapest system in the world but 100% rock solid wifi and very accurate notifications & recording and very, very easy to use.

    I tried to live without the subscription but unless you can immediately pick up your phone or glance at a screen when the cameras notify anything then you will need the recording.
