Totally agree!

I think few people would go for the big plan at that rate.
As for the lack of cheaper smaller plans thus far... I could be wrong but my theory on the lack of smaller plans is that bandwidth is more expensive than storage space. If you have a smaller dropbox then you're going to be swapping files in and out more or potentially the same amount as someone with a large account. So the cost to dropbox for bandwidth would be greater or at least close to the same.

You know mega.co.nz offers 50GB for free, right ?

There is nothing I like about mega.co.nz.
Aa, ok. I thought you just needed the cloud storage. I am also a big fan of Dropbox. A plan like that would definitely raise my eyebrow.

You know Kim Dotcom is an ex-convict and has engaged in a long and diverse list of criminal activities? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kim_Dotcom#Criminal_investigations He's not exactly someone you would want to trust with your personal files.
Well, yes, but that doesn't necessarily mean the website is bad. I'm not saying is good either, just his criminal record doesn't make the service necessarily bad, or that Google or Dropbox will treat your files differently (better or worse).
I'd love a $1.99/100GB plan.
