Getting bought out could go either way for Dropbox's users. Getting bought out by Apple, however, would not be a good thing for us. The key feature that most people use Dropbox for is syncing across all their computers, and I simply don't see an Apple-owned brand doing anything remotely like that.
- tvon 16y agoMobileMe does exactly that.

- jasonlbaptiste 16y agoI love Ubuntu personally and I think it's awesome that Dropbox works for it. Objectively speaking now, it's just irrelevant in the grand scheme of things.
- Terretta 16y agoI love Ubuntu too, and I think it's awesome that iDisk works for it. It's cool seeing that awesomeness was built into iDisk, since Apple is using open standards for their online storage.

Even on Mac if you don't like the iDisk client, use any other WebDAV client you like. I see all the iDisk hate in these threads and I wonder about people paying lip service to open standards on the one hand, while pushing proprietary solutions and dissing open standards on the other.
