I've several hundred GB on Onedrive too (also never paid a cent for any of it) but I like having photos etc. on Google cloud too

Yeah Ill be Android for life I think so nothing integrates better. Although I bet we'll look back in a year or three when unlimited storage is the norm and laugh at these limits like the way you used to have to delete emails to free up space for new ones.

Thanks for this. Just enabled 2 factor authentication.
Not sure how that will work out if I ever lose my phone though.

That was nothing compared to the frantic fights to free up as much of your lower 640kB of RAM a decade again before that

Thank you very much

I bet we'll look back in a year or three and laugh at how we naively thought unlimited storage was actually unlimited and would remain unlimited

Theres always a fair use / get out clause like amazons current "substantially exceeds or differs from normal use by other users"

Once they have all your files the average user will have a large degree of inertia and they will be charge accordingly.

Cheers Captain Morgan, I would never have known.

2nd or 3rd time doing the 'test', I can't remember.

Yes, this works even if you've long since secured your account in previous years and received free space the last time around.

Free 2GB, neat.
