This is the exact reason i didn't switch to a pro yet. I love dropbox and all the syncing, but give me a plan below $5 with a relative storage. Google Drive gives 100GB at $2, that would be an amazing start for Dropbox.
- danieldk 10y agoThat is not going to happen. Google can sell Google Drive space at a loss, since they have other sources of income (ads, Google Apps subscriptions, etc.). In fact, nothing from Google's terms holds them from mining your Google Drive data for ads (unless you are using Google Apps for Work). For Dropbox, storage is the only source of income. Most of their income comes from people like me who are modest users ( < 100GB, not a lot of transfer). Offering intermediate plans would make nearly all users high-loss users. (I also can't understand why people are expecting to pay only $2 per month for 100GB of highly redundant storage with a top-notch client.)
