Unlike dropbox, the app Minus offers 10gigs of free space!
Minus offers 10gigs of free space, unlike dropbox and zumodrive. I just wanted to share the application with my XDA friends! Here's the link!

SO Enjoy

@rajverma nice find
Another alternative is SugarSynch.com which offers 5gb free.
Also for those that have their own storage/server somewhere this is what i did.
I used iqbox-svn as synch software on the clients and VisualSVN As software for the server.
It doesn't have any web interface or recovery like dropbox has but heck it's all free and if you got the space/server might as well utilize it.
Ps: Sry for thread jacking

omg, i rly think i will use this!
i just registered.. with one single step, without even a need of email!!
holy ****, all registrations should be that fast xD

Minus.com is taking over the world
Seriously though, it seems to be a far superior alternative to Dropbox. Good for hosting files too, with no Bandwidth limitations. I'm sure a lot of people here will use it to share their dev work.
Thumbs up from me!

CX also offers 10GB free space and it works on all phone / desktop models just like dropbox
this minus, only works for android, iphone, and windows
not as useful as the other 2

Nah man, I'm good with dropbox. These alternatives come with a catch of MINUS the features.

nice, almost filled my dropbox, thanks

meh
it is a lot more initial storage, but i have almost 16gbs free on dropbox from referrals. on top of the reliability and capabilities of dropbox, i find everything i need satisfied that way.

That is a nice find. Is there a way to organize the files with folders like Dropbox?

The big selling point of dropbox is not the size of the space but the ease of use. Their app works easy, site works easy, etc.
I gave sugarsync a try and their website was some CSS/javascript clusterfuck, everything required loading and had to be fancy. Dropbox on the other-hand is a simply file tree, and everything is right there.

Sounds interesting. I will give them a try. Thanks

I simply created an ftp server using iis on my pc and made the root directory a folder on my 1tb storage hard drive. Than used dns redirrection on my website to have it a named server ftp.
Though not all people have the resources i LOVE it.
I have as many files/movies as i need at my disposal on my phone and can link without the worry of getting my links shut down.
Sorry if i'm a little off topic i just thought i'd throw my 2¢ in.

I thought google was doing something similar ????

How is the upload and download speeds

What about resume support?

Yep, I've been on minus for a few days, and I like it more than Dropbox. Got 12 gigs, and if you want more storage use my referral link in my sig. Both of us will get an extra gig.

Depends on ur ISP really.

that is quite generous of them to give 1gb per referral, I think dropbox only gives 0.25gb.

That's what it used to be - don't know about now.
A bunch of us shared folders on Dropbox for Co0kie's Home Tab development work, testing, graphics etc.. I got mine up to 10GB in no time.

It's still one gig. I got my boss to sign up. I have 14gb now

SkyDrive FTW
25GB for free, and no limit for Office files and photos! 5GB can be sync'ed.
And all you need is a Live ID or Hotmail account.

The Off-topic Referral Thread - Free Cloud Storage Only!!!!!

6/24/23 - adding degoo - https://cloud.degoo.com/drive-7nawuijtr3yd
Mods, if this post is against forum rules or something, please feel free to move/modify/delete this thread at your discretion. Thanks!
Maybe we can sticky this so anyone looking to sign up has easy access to an extra 250mb, or 500mb if you use an edu email address.
Anyway, here's my Dropbox link. Everyone else feel free to post yours as well.
http://www.dropbox.com/referrals/NTEzMjg4OTgwOQ
11/18/10 - The person who clicks the referral link has to install the desktop application in order for both of you to get your extra space. Signing up alone isn't enough, apparently.
10/3/11 - Adding my link for Minus. Everyone should feel free to post links to SugarSync and Minus (or others I forgot) as well.
http://min.us/rhFjttU
01/29/12 - Here's my SugarSync link too. - https://www.sugarsync.com/referral?...xemail&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=referral
05/30/13 - Copy Link. I'm jumping on the bandwagon. - https://copy.com?r=upnBrG
Mod note: Due to some recent posts I have to make this clear. The only types of referrals allowed in this thread are ones that get you more storage space on cloud storage facilities. DO NOT post anything that is to make you money from referrals. If you do it will immediately be deleted and you might get a ticking off for ignoring a mod request.
Thank you
Ah yes, that's a good idea, I was wondering about this earlier as well .
Feel free to use my referral link, I wouldn't mind giving and getting a bit of extra space ,
http://www.dropbox.com/referrals/NTg3ODYyMjU5
Yeah, I could definitely use some extra space. In case people don't know, if you use a referral when you join dropbox, then you get an extra 250mb of space for free... so instead of 2gb, you will get 2.25gb for free, and the person who referred you gets an extra 250mb. So please, use one of our referral links and join dropbox to get 2.25gb of free online storage. An easy way to share files with people!
Here is my referral link... http://www.dropbox.com/referrals/NTEwOTc5ODgzOQ
Just another Dropbox referral link, in case somebody wants to give + receive some extra free space: dropbox.com/referrals/NTQ5MzE5Mzc5?src=7.
Thanks!
I'll put mine in as I could use a little more space (and anyone wanted to signup wants an extra 250MB)

I want some space too!

One more referral link here - lots left. It's associated with an .edu address so not sure, but we both may get 500MB for signing up. Thanks in advance!! www (dot) dropbox (dot) com/referrals/NTMyNzQxMjI5?src=global0
I have a few spots left on my referral too. I'm .edu, that means you get 500MB (not 250MB) for using my link! http://db.tt/CR8gsvz

another sweet dropbox link http://db.tt/J6XxkOF
I can't miss that opportunity to expose myself as yet another 500MB whore
Here's yet another referral link: http://db.tt/OtDagUu Sign up via the link & we both get bonus free storage space on top of the default 2GB.
Remember, the links towards the end of this thread are the freshest & most likely to still work (as each link can only be used for 24 referrals aiui )
Gotta say, I love Dropbox. It's been 100% reliable for me in the six months I've been using it. The software is well behaved & doesn't waste system resources. If you're using a machine on which you can't install the software, Dropbox offer a web interface which works well for file transfer. Great if you're out & about using college/work/library machines. It's a life saver if I forget my memory stick. Not to mention it obviously also gives file access via your mobile. Sweet.

Dropbox beta - Get up to 4.5GB extra free

Dropbox is testing a beta of their auto-upload of photos and videos feature. For each 500MB of upload you get an additional 500MB of free space up to 4.5GB. See link below for details.
http://forums.dropbox.com/topic.php?id=52900
Do you know if you can keep this extra space for free, long-term? I can't say it's better, but I already have 50 GB on Box.net, so I'm wondering if it's worth the trouble.

Sounds like you're covered.
I on the other hand use Dropbox for a lot of stuff even though I have an "unlimited" Amazon cloud drive account (from work). To answer your question about if you get to keep the space after the beta-test; I believe you do according to what I've read on their forum and on sites like Gizmodo.
Awesome, thanks

don't use it either, i use DropBox and i'm waiting for Google Drive. I might use it once microsoft gets off it's back side and gives us a proper android app
Bloody hell, nice one! I've got more cloud storage than I know what to do with at the minute
At least we got some integration to it thanks to HTC though! And unless I'm mistaken , it looks like its forever, instead of just 2 years

Did you already have an account? The wording suggests it's for existing customers (but I can't find any T&Cs anywhere to confirm that). I can't see why it would be country-specific though.
Cool, thanks for the heads up! I upgraded, and so did my girlfriend, she needed a 21 gig+ free online storage for backing up her pictures

Apparently I didn't have Skydrive on my 1nd account, but on my other older one I could receive it. So it works.
I upgraded now .. thanks for that information ...
can't complain 25GB with dropbox and now 25GB with SkyDrive
So now i have 25GB of Free space. After installing Win8 and therefore opt in Skydrive I haven't used it at all. But with Dropbox its different story because Iam using it everyday and have almost 31GB now
Great! thankyou for letting us know! an extra 25gb of storage will always come in handy
Thanks for the heads up on this, never used it before but will check it out.
THanks... though i use Drop.... but why not keep it on the safe side

On my old windows live account this worked, on my newer one the option isn't there, guessing it's only for older accounts.

DropBox Dropquest II

Get ready ... DropBox Dropquest II starts May 12
What is dropbox 2 going to provide as a point of difference? Faster syncing I hope.

Fun, promotion and a reflection of how the DropBox team use creativity as part of there company culture
Keeping up the good team spirit eventually will lead to new ideas.
Google Labs is another example how to promote good ideas ...
Sync time is low by design I think, preventing unnecessarily filesharing among the masses (like new firmwares and movies)
