Crate and Dropbox are approaching things from two totally different directions.
Dropbox is meant for collaborating with other people on a group of files. It's a two way street for two people who are relatively tech savvy. Crate is meant for quick file sharing. If you want to send a 50mb file to your officemates, it's simpler to just give them a Crate link and not have to go through the process of making a specific folder public, etc.
I think they are two totally different use cases. I use both and they don't intersect at all.
With regards to the space issue: we are going to upp (sp?) it, and anyone who buys the lifetime premium membership can expect to see their space increase dramatically in the very near future.

- wahnfrieden 16y agoWhat does crate offer me that dropbox + this script doesn't? http://wiki.dropbox.com/DropboxAddons/Dropbox%20Service http://wiki.dropbox.com/DropboxAddons/Dropbox%20Service I've also never had to set a folder as public myself, even using this script. It came with a Public folder.
- Deadsunrise 16y agoDropbox does exactly that with "Left click > Get shareable Link", doesn't it? You don't need to create a special public folder. For example http://db.tt/RjRrEKi http://db.tt/RjRrEKi is not on my Public folder but you can get it until I delete it from my dropbox.

- zitterbewegung 16y agoOkay, I would have worded the copy 'the fastest way to share files simply' or something like that.
