And Dropbox is proven in those areas (even more than Google Drive at thist point IMO). And it's not like getting more storage with them is really all that expensive in the grand scheme.

I usually find in the long term it's not worth going with a shittier product/service because it's a bit cheaper. There's usually a reason for the low price.
Absolutely, same for me. 2Gb is enough for me, only thing I did not like was that if you are on shared folder it would use quota of every person sharing. So if 4 persons are sharing you would basically have only 500Mb instead of 2Gb.

Anyway I was wondering about their business model and how would all these big competitors affect them. Its no secret that 20Gb sounds way more appealing to regular Joe who is deciding on which cloud service to join. I think dropbox may be losing many many clients because of that.
