Isn't the upload restricted tobacco very small size?

Are you certain invites can be given out by beta testers? Google Music was strictly invited by Google only.
I asked Google for one...
I read somewhere that users could invite. And in another place that invites where closed for now. Engadget got their invite and gave it a great review. Typically they are biased in their reviews ... I was shocked. This could be big.

I'm in, got invited by a Google mate. No invites for users yet, they seem to be taking it easy.
The app is great on android phones. Really slick and comprehensive. Lots of options for controlling the instant upload, and huddles just seem to work.
Sadly, it isn't Honeycomb'd at all, and looks really rather rubbish on my Transformer. And the website is broken and slow in a number of ways in the browser. Bah.

It should be obvious google starts everything in the US, it only makes sense because this is where the company is located.

Free 50GB cloud storage at Box.com for LG (and Xperia) users!

I've had a Box account for 1 month now. And their free box is 5GB. From Nov 30, 2010 to December 31, 2012 though, a deal between LG and Box will upgrade your storage to 50GB for free!
I already tried it. (I faked my SIM as T-mobile just to be sure though, as the promo did say that it's supposed to be for US folks only. )
Have fun boys and girls!

thanks, it works
it works for me (from SG), but the bad thing about box.net is that theres a file size limit. useful for songs and pics, but not for uploading rom backups
still sticking to dropbox

is it for people who already had a box account or anyone? cause i had one and just had to log in with the app on my OB and a popup said "you have upgraded to 50gb" but my sister who has an SE Arc didn't get any 50gb but she made a new account as she didn't have one earlier. she's stuck at 5gb.
Yeah, currently, it's only active for LG. Sony already has a deal with Box, but Im not sure when their free stuff will take effect.

In Poland it works too without any tricks. Just downloaded Box app from Android Market, registered my new account and get free 50GB.
Box.net is kinda crappy on the file size limit (25 MB or 100 MB).
This is why Dropbox > *.

10 GB Free Online Storage & Unlimited Bandwidth

I wasn't sure who I should say something too, but there is a better service for free unlim bw hosting and more space than Dropbox. It's minus.com if you just create a public folder for say each phone or each phone&rom combo and link the folder page it gives unlimited bw, if you just hyperlink straight to the rom then at a certain point it gets throttled, but never turned off or suspended.
Also use my link and get instantly 1GB extra and everyone you refer gives you more space, up to 50GB -> http://min.us/rucQ78U
They have both desktop & Droid programs & all URLs are short.

Box.net offering Free 50Gb Lifetime Cloud Storage to Android Usrs

Box.net is offering free 50GB cloud storage for life if you sign up from your android. DL the app, sign up with a new email address and upon completion it gives you a message that you now have 50Gb. Normally it is only 5Gb so this is a heck of a freebie.
Not sure how long it lasts so go get it.
Please remember to hit the thanks button!

Yes it is this has been out for a loooong time. And there is a 100mb upload limit (ouch!)
I only just heard about it but double checked... this deal has been going on for four days for Android users. Hardly a looong time. Further I did not see it posted anywhere and so thought some folks could actually benefit from knowing.
Oh and since you knew about it for so looong, where is your post letting the rest of us know about it?
But hey, thanks for being a thread-crapping douche rather than a contributing member. I'm sure we all appreciate your involvement.
Thanks! I have NOT heard about this yet. Its always nice to have backup space, especially 50gb of cloud storage.

So, box.net has been offering 50GB to LG users for awhile and the post you reference seems to confirm what i said... that the deal for all Android users has only been live since the 23rd. You will notice that I posted this in a Samsung thread who's users may have missed this posting in an LG thread-I know I did and I even searched for it.
Again though, I was just trying to help people and he was just trying to thread crap. I'm pretty comfortable with calling him a douche for it.
I apologize to anyone else I may have offended with my coarse language.

Hooray! 50 GB Free Storage with your Nexus 4

For those lucky ones who already got their Nexus 4! I'm still on the waiting list... damn you Google!!!
http://www.androidcentral.com/lg-nexus-4-qualifies-50gb-free-boxnet-cloud-storage
As it's being sold primarily by Google through the Play devices store, it's easy (and accurate) to think of the Nexus 4 as a Google device. But it's still an LG-made phone, and as such qualifies for 50GB of free space on Box.net, thanks to a partnership between manufacturer and cloud storage provider.
To claim your free space, simply log into the Box.net app from your Nexus 4, and upon loading the app for the first time, you should see the message above, informing you that your cloud storage allowance has been upped. And as part of a time-limited deal, Box is also allowing you to share your good fortune with friends or co-workers, giving them access to 50GB too.
The promotion runs until Dec. 31, so you've got plenty of time to bag some extra bits, and free up some of the Nexus 4's precious (and limited) internal storage space. Check the Google Play link above to grab the official Box.net app for Android.

Yeah I don't think it lets you add it up like that either. I think what you can do is register it to another email address like a separate account. They won't be associated, but you'll have two separate 50GB accounts and technically 100GB of total online cloud storage .
