Will there be a 2 TB option for personal accounts?

Dropbox is more than unwilling to fulfill customer needs.

I found Livedrive!

It is much, much cheaper!

And you can choose the amount of space you need!!!

Presently I use Livedrive AND Dropbox, but will quit Dropbox soon.

Sorry for Dropbox! 

I'm in the same ball park. I've been a paying customer in one way or another (business plans, personal plans, now the plus plan...) for 5 years. Now days I'm a freelance filmmaker (not a team of 3 or 5 people, just me). I sync everything but source footage to dropbox and I need more than 1TB.

Now I have to find another cloud service and spend a bunch of my time migrating **bleep**. This is stupid.

I hate to say it, but I think I'm going to have to switch to Sync.com.  They offer 2TB and 4TB options for individuals.

I'm really not happy about having to switch.  I've been using DropBox for a few years now, and I've been really happy with the service.  But 1TB just isn't enough anymore.

I really don't understand why there isn't a 2TB option.  Hell, I'd use dropbox with two different acccounts, each with a 1TB account, except you can't have more than one dropbox account on a computer on a single windows login.

I just asked about this as I'm up to 75% of my 1TB allocation currently and fortunately have OneDrive since I use the Office365 so I can put some overflow on that platform.

The problem is that I asked them about the Business plan option after seeing that it was $15 monthly.  Then I read the fine print and it said "for 3 users."  So I asked support if I had to buy 3 licenses and they said, "but you don't have to use the licenses right away" and they kept bringing that point up.  I tried to explain to her if I could just get 1 license at $15 instead of having to be stuck paying for $45 to have 3 licenses with 2 of them that she said that I don't have to use them right away...  she kept insisting this was a good deal to pay for licenses I wouldn't be using.

Sadly, she said in the end that, "well, you could just use our Dropbox Plus and have 1TB...."  and I realized.....  she was incredibly stupid.  

The only reason I don't put my critical files on OneDrive or Google Drive is that those two platforms have problems.  OneDrive periodically gets stuck in some kind of weird issue where it always says, "Processing changes....." and never stops it.  If you have folders with lots of files and subfolders, it often gets lost and takes forever to sync.  Google Drive is one where I've lost lots of files when trying to keep two computers in perfect sync (like an iTunes directory with library files and media files then setting up a directory junction on Windows so when I launch iTunes on my home PC or my laptop that it sees it as the same instance and my iPod Classic can sync to either one without issue -- very convenient).

The only platform that handles that well is Dropbox.  Never had an issue.  Much like when everyone dropped prices on 1TB to $10/mo, Dropbox took a long time to drop those prices but eventually did.  I hope that eventually they come to the conclusion that 2TB at $20 is a reasonable price to pay and we'd probably all end up paying it if they just gave us that option.. even with the same feature set.

I would really like to have an intermediate option as well. If nothing happens, I'll have to switch from Dropbox.

I'm pulling my videos off of Dropbox.  I was using Dropbox solely as a backup platform so I don't need all the multi-PC sync of it.  For 1/2 the price $5/mo, I just signed up for Amazon Drive to back up my 1TB of videos.  It's not pretty and it's not as elegant as Dropbox, but it does what I need..... an off-site backup of videos.  My critical files stay on Dropbox but all the music and videos go there.

They go up to 20TB or more.  And they have a 2TB option for $9.99/mo plus I can scale to 4TB if I need to.

It's just a backup though but that's all I want.  If I want to stream those videos on my phone, I can just use the Amazon Drive app and I'm good.

It's not a sync like Dropbox but a backup platform like Carbonite except it backs up video files :)    So if I make changes, it will grab them on the next scan and send them over.  Kind of like "upload mirror."

Kudos

Same here - if Dropbox doesn't offer more storage before New Years I don't think I will renew my license. It's time for 2TB instead of 1TB.

Not quite there yet, but when I'm out of space I will look for alternatives (the business model just doesn't cut it for personal use).

I want 2TB as well, but wouldn't mind 5TB either.. even better, unlimited! Dropbox desperately needs an upgrade.. physical memory is getting cheaper and cheaper by the year, and doubling in size. Videos do take up a lot of space, including the new 4K videos.
