Free 100GB Storage, $10/mo/2TB

Hello folks. Stumbled upon degoo.com today. Yet another cloud storage provider. They are giving 100GB free and charging $10/mo for 2TB. Wanted to let you guys know about them.

Disclaimer: I have no relation to them, and don't know anything about them other than what is written above.

    I saw mixed reviews on them, particularly in the comments on their FB page. Was looking into them because I saw this: https://deals.neowin.net/sales/degoo-ultimate-2tb-backup-plan-lifetime-subscription

    So they are this overpriced AND there are still mixed reviews? How hard must you fail...

    Lifetime 2TB for $60? This would actually keep me away from the provider.

    Yep. Pretty sure I linked to them as a 'lol' awhile back.

  • How about lifetime 2TB for $250? Is it too low to be trusted?

    This is the keyword with regards to the trust issues.

    Yes, you should always ask whose lifetime.

    Studied business law. I can give input here.

    a LLC (limited liability company) is treated as a separate entity under the law. You can think of the company as having a living person's right.

    Therefore, "lifetime" services will be defined as the life of the company (the duration in which the company is still operating) or product line (if defined under the service agreement).

    Thus, once a company ceases operation and file for bankruptcy or dissolution, the lifetime services that was offered will be completed and contractual obligation will cease.

    As a LLC is treated under the law as a separate entity with all the rights of an individual, you can only sue it (the company) for breach of contract or any damage but the share-holders/owners/executives will not be personally liable for any damage.

    Therefore if the company file for bankruptcy or cease operation, it would constitute as "Lifetime" service completed.

    Services that offer "Lifetime" services for a higher 1 time payment will only have 2 reason doing so.

    1. To kick start the business by getting an initial spike in capital to grow, which hopefully will be fast enough to offset the relatively smaller early birds customer's continual expenses

    2. Short term revenue driven and are looking to exit the business in the near future. If such is the case, profits made are usually not reinvested into the business but are used to start other start-ups

    I confess that I was acting a bit with tongue in cheek ("lifetime" offers on LET, you see), but your detailed reply is much appreciated. :-)

  • This reminds me of cloudatcost. It was for lifetime, until an yearly maintenance fee came up.
