Fuck DropBox. They've always promoted bait and switch plans and implied functionality that doesn't exist unless you upgrade to a higher tier. They were deceptive as fuck to consumers for years and stole an unknowable amount from the public with their shady marketing lies.

I hope DropBox sinks to the bottom of the deepest ocean. All they had to do was be honest with consumers about offering something solid, but they still just can't bring themselves to tell the truth about a single plan they offer. Shady motherfuckers.

Edit: Fuck Google and Microsoft as well. Sync.com has been cheaper, more honest and more reliable than any of these lying megacorp dickheads.

Wow, Sync seems almost too good to be true, as they are significantly less expensive. Have you experience with it? Are there any drawbacks? Slow speeds or bad integration into Windows Explorer?

I have been using Sync for a few years now. When I first started, there were a couple weird issues. When I reported the issues, they responded immediately and actually fixed them. I have zero complaints about them so far. I don't use Windows Explorer so I can't comment on that.
