Recipient of shared folder having to buy space?
Why are the recipients of my shared folders being told they need to sign up and pay for dropbox or saying they need more space?

Yes, a Dropbox account is required to join a shared folder.
If your clients only need to view or download the content, and have no need to upload files to you or modify the files in the folder, you can send a Shared Link to the folder instead. A Dropbox account is not required for a Shared Link.
Yes I am on a paid plan. but what if clients don't even have db? Do they still have to sign up to receive a shared folder from me? Thanks Rich
