I have a free account with Dropbox and get tired of them wanting to back all my
hard drives etc. but it works fine for my needs. I also use Wetransfer, the
free version, and it works great.
I've thought about Google Drive, but haven't tried it yet.

HI,
I certainly love Google Drive.
One you get much more space for free then you do with dropbox Two. You can
easyly connect it to all your devices.

Hi Rich,
I can vouch for dropbox. I have used it for years, and have had no trouble at
all, except with sometimes uploading. Uploading and downloading might depend on
your ISP settings and data plan.

Hi Rich!
Did you check the Dropbox settings and changing the network settings to not
limit your upload bandwith?
Have used Dropbox for years, and it just works like a charm.
WeTransfer might be an alternative, but haven't used this much,so can't speak
for stability etc. on that one.
Best regards Thomas

Incredibly frustrated with dropbox! Not sure why they refuse to sync files,
even though they say they are syncing. Bandmates cannot acces them, and even
not getting sync'd here on my own machines.
Anyone know of a good, inexpensive alternative that will actually do what
they say they will do - allow me to put up files for others to download? I
don't need an excessive amount of space, just something I can use to share
files with my band, and something that doesn't rediculously limit my upload
rate (i.e. doesn't take hours to upload a simple mp3).
Tried google drive, but they seem to be doing the same thing - taking hours
to sync a simple file! Perhaps it is verizon, my internet provider, but I
have fios which is supposed to be reasonably fast upload speed as well.
Any advice? Thanx in advance...
