COPY (dropbox clone)

[UncleBob]

Here's a new cloud storage site, you get 15gigs for signing up as an introductory offer, looks like a pretty useful alternative to dropbox:

Hm, gonna test. Let's see if uploading is faster than with dropbox.

Did you turn off throttling in Dropbox? I get epic u/l speeds on fast networks.

Yeah, throttling disabled ofc.

So far COPY it the exact same thing as dropbox, maybe a little prettier looking, but has more space......no brainer.

Is there a file size limit? Pisses me off to have to make split archives that dumb clients can't open because they are so dumb...

What filesize are we speaking about? I uploaded a 1.5gb file to test .. no problem.

lol
Reminds me of uploading everything zipped, because most of the clients can't figure out how to save a file that opens in the browser :S

15 or 20mb/file in dropbox IIRC

??? I've uploaded much bigger files than that to dropbox without any problems.

Well If I put bigger files it won't upload it... There's a red mark that appear on the icon.

Uninstalled it and installed the latest version, now it works like it should. Durrr.

Thanks for the hint. I'd appreciate if someone used my reflink: https://copy.com?r=q4YlND

Cool, thanks for the tip. I'm gonna test in on my iPhone - unfortunately I have 10.6.8 on my Mac and the Copy app needs 10.7, well - I guess one more reason to upgrade.

 

[lanky noob]

Won't work with my os. Need 10.7 or later, i'm on 10.6.8.

Balls.

Also, don't know if posted here but Mega is offering 50GB of free storage.

Let's see if it lasts for more than 6 months... Minus was a huge dissapointment.

You can also share whole folders. Seems like a great alternative.

edit: There are a lot of bugs right now on the web interface. I hope they fix them.

Testing this alongside dropbox. Enjoy your 5gb bonus!
