It's not really meant as cloud storage, but more as a catchnet to prevent abuse.
If you're not paying for pixeldrain your files will always expire 30 days after the last time they're viewed. So even if someone uploads 500 GB the chance is very slim that it will still be there next month. As long as the files stay up they're generating ad revenue and I don't need to remove them.
- nikolay 5y agoOh, really? You didn't know how people used Flickr to store terabytes of data in "images"?
- Fornax96 5y agoBandwidth costs 10 times as much as storage, so I'm more concerned about that :-) If it becomes a problem I'll do something about it. The storage limit is a recent thing anyway. The site operated 6 years without any limit on storage space.
- nikolay 5y agoNot really. Reliable storage is very expensive!
