    I'd love a $1.99/100GB plan.

      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 ?

    I love it how companies usually do the euro-pricing by switching symbols. But great to see that the value you get with the service has gone up significantly.

    I was a happy user beforehand, now I'm a happy customer.

    Touché Dropbox...

    Would be nice if they bumped up the base-level storage for the free plan, at least like 10 GB free.

    This is awesome, nonetheless. Google Drive is just too slow compared to Dropbox.

    My free Dropbox is currently at 19GB and my free Baidu cloud is at 2TB. I think I am good with free for now. Haha.

    The war on cloud storage is going on, and that is a great thing. Prizes will keep dropping and dropping I believe.

    Downside for mow, for me is, that I have a 256GB drive in my MPB, so what do I do with the rest? Or can I split the storage over the internal and a external drive?

        Well when you do 3D you often end up with a scene of 300mo to 1go depending on your object complexity, then you have tons of textures (can get really high quickly). I would say that the average project is about 5go.

        The worst is video, I've worked for 1 year in a production facility and we would buy a 1to drive nearly for each new project (shooting HD and 4K takes space!) just for the archiving.

        Sometimes I wish I was doing code heh

    There it is. I was worried about how long it would take them to catch up.
