I haven't signed up yet, but supposedly you can get 50

gigabytes of free storage at ADrive --- www.adrive.com

Yes, it's true; I have a account with them and you do get 50GB of free storage

I just signed up for ADrive, but don't you have to pay in order to have it sync up automatically?

It looks like a great way to go if I could find some way for it to act like dropbox.

Hmm, I'm not sure but I don't think it acts like Dropbox (the feature list doesn't say anything about syncing ???). I only use it to store stuff I want to keep but want off my computer so it's mostly a dump site for me.

Okay, cool thanks, I had a feeling that's what it was used for...which is awesome, so I'm keeping it, I mean, it's 50GB LOL

Okay.....just realized Calibre was adding that extra .original_epub file and that was being backed up too.

Now that I deleted all of them, I've got like 22% left instead of 2%

If you're using a library in the cloud with Calibre2opds, do note that -- at least when I was playing around with SugarSync -- the Calibre2opds html file with the book links doesn't work with SugarSync.

Unless they've fixed it in the last 6 months, or I was Doin' It Rong.

You are right, it doesn't work, so I removed SugarSync from my PC...I've got some more space to play around with now that I've gotten rid of the duplicate *.original_epub files.

Actually, it's an extra 47GB. $9.99 per month for 50GB total.

My wife uses Dropbox for her business. She has gotten so many of her clients to use dropbox that she gets close to 10GB of storage for free.
