    Redmond is not only killing your 15GB camera roll back-up bonus, it's also slashing 10GB off your account, bringing it down to 5GB.

    Maybe we should send them some old hard drives to help with storage?

      Can I send them old memories of me and my friends? They are going to have them anyways. :laugh: But then I see that I am a Microsoft MVP and I can find a way around these using a few of the benefits that I get. How about that, bro? :cool:

        They got enough data from that project and now they need the room for another one that they will kill/slash in the future.

          They are going to use it to store all the build files as they finally go about fixing the bugs they have been sweeping under the rug in Visual Studio and their other products :rolleyes:

              Then W10 (allegedly) made it much easier to use onedrive, resulting in average utilization above what they could afford. :doh: :doh: :doh: :doh: :doh: :omg: :wtf: :omg: :wtf: :omg: :wtf: :omg: :wtf: :omg: :wtf: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :doh:

              Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint.

                Thank you for the reminder. I am taking advantage of the one year subscription to Office 365 Personal for now and I can debate whether to keep my Office 365 Business account for another year.

                  I still have 140GB. 25GB of it expires next month. 100GB of it expires next February. I've known about both expiration dates for quite a while. What's unclear is whether my 10GB loyalty bonus will stick around. I actually like how OneDrive works far more than Dropbox and, especially, Google Drive, but the latter integrates better with Android (better; it still sucks--for reasons that escape me, it refuses to sync up some pictures I took yesterday.)
