1 TB is more than enough for most people. I am wondering how they will stay in business. Who would pay for that second Terabyte?

Edit: they recently changed their free tier to 30 GB. That is still pretty generous. I knew they wouldn’t last giving away a free TB for everyone.

    its 100% going to be a bait and switch. It starts at 1TB, then it downgrades to a lower amount (seems like 30 GB), then eventually it will be downgraded even more. Eventually it will be under what you are utilizing and you will need to either upgrade your plan for a premium, or migrate your data elsewhere. They will be betting you would rather just pay the premium than move it elsewhere.

    That’s how dropbox got as established as it did. High file storage linked to publicity, then they gutted the space given. photobucket attempted the same thing but their marketing fell through.
