You could create 5 different Outlook accounts for yourself, and have a TB for each. It's intended for 'family', but it could be anybody you want to 'share' with. The person paying for the subscription is the only one in control and is the one who doles out Office licenses. You also get one Skype (pro?) subscription.

Storage used to be 'unlimited' but you can imagine how that was abused. At least with ISP uploading is very slow, it would take weeks to even fill up 1TB. Cannot say it is slower than DropBox or Google Drive, as I never had occasion to upload 10GB video files with them. My work laptop has a backup app for user folders and even that took a couple of days to sync about 20GB that I had at the time. I imagine that the bottleneck is actually the service and not the network bandwidth.
