You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.
I have a ton of pics and videos uploaded to DB but I really hate paying $100/year for storage. Other cloud services offer a 1 time lifetime payment, is this something Dropbox would consider?

Status changed:NewtoNot for right now I would also like a lifetime plan, it doesn't need to be infinite storate (which is unrealistic), but something better than the free version. I wouldn't mind a tiered price, like maybe a 1 TB or 2 TB for different prices, etc.
Dropbox syncing is one of the best out thier (if not the best), but I don't like how Dropbox is adding more restrictions, like how many computers I can sync with, with the free version (to try and get you to upgrade). I believe $12 a month is too much. As much as I like Dropbox's syncing, I'm currently leaning more towards [a competitor] which does offer a Lifetime plan. It's really nice to not have to pay a monthly fee.
I will unlikely subscribe to Dropbox, but I would definitely purchase a Lifetime plan.
We need a lifetime option.

It wont happen - you just need to look at all these companies offering 1 time fees... they go bust quickly when they realise that there revenue stream has dried up.
Its silly to ask really as the costs to store, process and transport the files etc. never stop
For a one-time reasonable/fixed lifetime payment... yes!

I am from Africa, i can sacrifice for a once of payment, not even 2TB even 200GB once off because i cant literally afford monthly recurring payments. To put things into perspective USD$10 is a 1/4 of someones salary here.
Is there a plan that we can just make one time payment and get infinite storage?
Hey folks,
I was just wondering if there were any projected promotions or lifetime deals upcoming in the forseeable future. While the plans are appealing for hardcore users there are plenty of us that just need a reasonable ammount of extra space perhaps.
