    If I remember correctly skydrive had unlimited storage with a paid plan at first. but ofc some guys uploaded terabytes of data so they eventually got rid of the unlimited plan.

      What did they expect? Unlimited storage = I’m going to use it

        A classic case of having their cake (the marketing benefits of offering unlimited storage) and eating it too (not wanting anyone to use any storage)

        The amount of people that actually use a huge amount is pretty small, which is why Backblaze can still offer unlimited storage to this day

          With backblaze the price increases as you store more.

            Only with the business plans. The personal plan has unlimited storage for a flat price
