I think your first point is brilliant, but your second I disagree with. $5/month is $60 a year, practically an impulse purchase for a lot of people. $10/month

I think your first point is brilliant, but your second I disagree with.
$5/month is $60 a year, practically an impulse purchase for a lot of people. $10/month is $120/year. That psychologically adds an extra digit to both the monthly and years and that is also high enough to be outside impulse buy range.
Anecdotally, I love dropbox, but I don't even fully use the 2GB free account (mostly text files). I would pay $60/year immediately for even a 5GB or 10GB plan on the possibility I might need it swiftly or to give me the freedom of tossing on some more pictures of the kids. But I can't justify $120/year when I still have space left ont he free account.
- roc 15y agoI don't doubt that you and people like you are out there. I just wonder how many of you there are. Again, even a 10GB plan might cleave off too many 50GB users for the numbers to work out. And for 5GB, surely more people would spam their friends for referrals or make fake email accounts, than break out their credit cards to set up recurring billing.
