Family plan is too expensive for what it offers
While I would like to have the ability for my wife and I to share a combined account with our own individual logins - it's not worth the extra $80/year, almost doubling the cost for only a limited i...
I absolutely agree with you! It is WAY overpriced in this market. My wife had to get a "plus" account just because she has too much for the free account, but certainly doesn't need 2 TB!! So, I found out DB has a "family plan" similar to the family sharing with iCloud. BUT, you're right- it costs over $200/year. She didn't like having to shell out the already huge amount for the "plus" plan of 2 TB for one person, when say 50GB would have been MORE than enough for her. And now I find out that the same 2 TB, if shared, costs another $80!! That sucks! Dropbox needs some much smaller plans between the free tier and the amount in a large hard drive. A lot more people would opt in for .99/month than would pay these prices. The little extras besides the basic storage are nice, but not worth the money. In fact, I'm one of the people who can do OK with 5 GB, but need to have DB on a 4th device, so now have to delete it on one or pay for 2 TB. Can you see why I'm NOT HAPPY about this setup? I liked DB when it first came out, but now it is not competitive!
