There are advantages with Web Storage APIs. They offers more storage capacity (usually 5MB) but cookies allow only about 4KB. The data stored in the local storage area does not expire and spans accross different tabs and/or windows. The Web Storage specification is better designed and provide more secure way of storing data on the client.
