When Apple’s iCloud was released a couple of days ago, boasting 5GB of free storage, Box.net was quick on their feet to seriously outdo Cupertino’s version of cloud storage. They’re giving away 50GB of free cloud storage to any iOS user who downloads their app and logs in or signs up for an account through the app. The deal is good until December 2nd and you get to keep the storage forever.
Anyone who currently uses a Box.net Personal account on an iOS device will get the upgraded free storage space on top of their initial 5GB that usually comes with a free account.
On top of the 50GB of free space, Box.net is also upping the file size upload limit from 25MB to 100MB, which still might be too low for some, but is more than enough for general documents, photos, etc.
The storage will also be applied to your computer as well, but it seems it the love won’t be shared on Android devices even though Box.net has an Android app. However, one of the comments on Box.net’s blog suggests a fix that will allow access to your 50GB on devices other than your PC and iOS devices:
“Download itunes. Make an account. Go to apple store. Download the app on the device. Create account get 50GB space. Go to the phone’s settings and scroll down to Store. Click on logout so it logs you out of your itunes account. Also remember to delete the App off the phone.”
