![]() No excuse for Microsoft’s flip flopping on ‘unlimited’ storage The company’s 15GB camera roll storage bonus will also be discontinued. Free OneDrive storage is also being scaled down from 15GB to 5GB for current and new users. ![]() Starting in 2016, Microsoft will replace its $2-a-month 100GB and $4-a-month 200GB plans for new users on OneDrive with a 50GB plan that costs $2 per month, according to a company blog post that announced the changes on Monday night. ![]() Microsoft no longer plans to offer unlimited storage for Office 365 Home, Personal, or University subscribers instead, those people now get 1TB of storage for their money. What’s with companies that promise consumers “unlimited” use of their products and then get bent out of shape when people take them up on the offer? So-called “data hogs” get their download speeds throttled if they consume too much data on their mobile devices, and now Microsoft is inveighing against users who store too much data on its supposedly unlimited OneDrive storage service.Īs if Microsoft’s decision to crack down on the tiny percentage of users who, well, use too much storage space wasn’t bad enough, it’s also cutting storage and raising prices for everybody who subscribes to OneDrive. ![]()
