    [SOLVED] Would you take the chance to have unlimted online storage

    I'm Just wondering if you had the chance for a premium UNLIMITED storage account would you take it One that allows one to upload Media files and play them back over the web along with Pictures, etc. Like a online desktop but again u'd have UNLIMITED storage okay same question however would you become a beta tester for them.

    I know I would.

    I suppose I would as well. Sounds good, too good. Offering unlimited space is pretty amazing. If you have the opportunity to beta test, I would say go for it. I would just be picky as to what files you store. and read the terms really good so you know what is happening to and with you files.

    I'd also be interested in what kinds of speed they're able to offer or if there's a max file size. It seems like it'd be difficult to reliably serve gigabytes of data over the net.

    At the same time, if I had the chance to beta test, I think I'd find a variety of file sizes and put the system through it's paces.

    You read my mind.
    Think carefully before executing commands containing "rm", especially "sudo rm -rf ", if you require more information concerning this matter, read this.

    I wouldn't. My upload speed sucks too much.

    Hmm...how much per year? I would definitely be into this-it would make swapping between distros and PCs so much easier...it would have to have a rider in the EULA that says all files are the responsibility of the end user-I don't want anyone policing my stuff, even though I have nothing to hide. Just give me a big ole box and take my money, thanks.

    No.

    * I don't have an internet connection
    * I have or would buy hard drives or DVDs for storage
    * I woudn't trust an external site for anything other than remote backup
    * There is no such thing as "unlimited"

    I know that and what's the diff. between remote backup of all files compared to the others - both would of had personal info. No it's not actually a backup site at all - it's a media site to upload music and junk - and anyone should know not to give up control to a website, etc.. unless u don't care that others see it. Again no billing nor personal info. is required at all. just a username and password..
