Dropbox REMOVED Votebox After Bitcoin Was Voted #1. Time To Switch?

[Dabs]

Well, ... I still have dropbox. I also have a coupon thingie installed on a Samsung device that grants 50 GB to either a new account or an existing account. You can buy that from me and pay with bitcoins. hehehehe.

Sorry for asking, but is there any particular reason we can't just use Mega?

is bittorent sync better than bittorent in sharing one file with one person?

[theonewhowaskazu]

how is it different from bittorent? is it easier to send a file this way

Well, Bitorrent is often blocked, and Mega is usually easier to use?

Main reason for which I don't like dropbox.

i wont use them either

Isn't mega for sharing files with others, like mediafire, while dropbox is for storing file personally, like google drive?

What's your experience with http://www.wuala.com/en/learn/technology ?

This seems to be one of the best alternatives I've found so far and most secure.

I'm also looking into Mega but uploading files seems to be bugged.

jambola2 wants a replacement.
He uses only dropbox for a huge amount of things.
He asks if anyone can suggest an easy to use alternative.

Wuala gives you 5gb and best privacy, has folder sync and so on.

This thread was originally a raffle + drive for Bitcoin users to vote on Dropbox site "Votebox" to accept Bitcoin.

Dropbox has recently closed Votebox.. This is after Bitcoin became the #1 voted request.

So... Here's something to consider -

Bittorrent Sync, an open-source replacement for Dropbox.

I personally will move my data to this service rather than continuing to pay Dropbox for ignoring my needs.

Also, I don't want US Govt to access my files.

BitTorrent Sync is NOT open-source. It is also not a service, but a protocol and application.

I'm pretty sure that Dropbox will eventually accept Bitcoin.

No need to boycott. However, my premium subscription has now expired and will stay so until they accept BTC
