Do you really think I claim to know how much space drop box freed up or that I propose in reality the reason they hired Rice is to free that space up? You seem to want to argue so let me indulge you.... I postulate geeks are more likely to use Dropbox's free service than non-geeks. Why? 1) They are better informed of alternative options and thus less likely to pay as they can spread their files out over multiple free services. 2) They have less trouble implanting multiple file storage options. Non-geeks are more likely to be intimidated by this and thus pay for the "name brand" and "what they know" option. 3) Geeks are known to be cheap. (ok... say "Cute" again). 4) I can keep going if you want. I think all this pretty clearly indicates my original point was valid. And this ridiculous thread indicates someone needs to spend less time on the computer and stop picking pepper out of flypoop. As for hiring Rice... ya, that seems like a bad idea on Dropbox's part.
