    Google drive will last until you die. While if you don't pay in drop 3 months without uploading anything you will lose everything without confirmation or alert message.

    I hate dropbox because if you don't touch in 3 month you will lose everything without confirmation. Microsoft won't let you place your porn or some private things or it will delete your datas and account. Google drive let you store enything as long as does not affect google and also you can edit your documents online.

    Dropbox can share your stored datas.

    This appears to be a race between Google and Microsoft to the next level,...Would this have anything to do with the PC user being pulled into line on the irksome and quirksome Windows 8?

    Many of us hate it.. me so much that I have just converted over to Linux.

    Do I really want my data up in the cloud somewhere?
