Flickr gives you 1TB of photo storage free but their app has been lacking the seamless integration with the OS and apps that Apple is promising.

  But they show ads in your stream. I use flickr but am looking elsewhere. Its a jarring experience really. you can look at 3 photos in a slide show, then in place of the 4th photo an ad. You can't even pay them to stop showing ads with your photos, as subscribing (which I did) only stops you from seeing the ads.

    The paid version of Flickr is only $24 a year, and includes no ads. I've been using it since 2008 and have built a library of almost 9000 photos and videos. Even after Flickr's redesign, I still recommend the service for photo storage (unless you need RAW storage). To keep everything backed up, I have a NAS in my basement that pulls a copy of my Flickr library on a routine basis. Edit: Flickr Ad-Free is $49/year, but $24/year for grandfathered Flickr Pro subscribers. Sorry for the confusion.

      I think his complaint is that the paid version only stops the person paying from seeing ads. A subscriber, for example, can't share their photos with a family member without them being interrupted by ads while viewing them.
