I am going to keep my mouth shut for profanity reasons. But, what the **** is this! Microsoft is seriously going off-track, I am very much glad I found Ubuntu Studio. If I hear another news like this, I am shifting myself to Ubuntu Studio, for sure. I am also unsure as to how would dropping the storage cap make sure that users are more productive? By writing short codes, by making sure there videos are always trimmed down to 480p. This is pathetic! :mad:

I've seen to many times that they have had offerings then cut or just done away with them. I was in on the beta for the "Free" websites before the went to Office 365 junk. I just don't trust anything they do anymore. I would not set up anything on any system they develope. Or just assume that what ever they offer will be done away with once they get the data they need from the users.

What on Earth are they thinking? In this age of ever-cheaper hosting and storage, everyone's falling over themselves to offer more, faster, cheaper, with more features. I'm in the review stage of switching our storage solution and this is not helping me feel confident about them. Never would I have considered worrying about a reduction in the plans I move to. If I move everything to another cloud provider then I need to know that the platform I'm standing on won't suddenly shrink and leave me hanging by my fingertips. Stupid, stupid, stupid.

I know that you accidentally double-posted this - but it makes sense somehow: You have to check twice to believe what's going on. ;)

Microshaft always!! X| X| Because of the Office integration and the space, I was a good OneDrive supporter ... now not anymore. Moving data to GDrive and Dropbox will suck my data dry :sigh:
