Introducing Drag and Drop Uploading

Came here to say this. Unlimited is never good. People get really pissed off when it's not really unlimited. And you immediately will have some people trying it and blogging about it.

I think specific flavors of unlimited make sense. It sounds like Corkboard can offer unlimited storage but with a cap of 50MB on files. The number of people willing to jump through the hoops required to make that truly unlimited is likely very few.

We do a similar thing at LayerVault. We offer unlimited storage and versioning of design files, but only for design files we support.

I would just be worried about them going away because they cannot pay for what they promise. Or because of bad press. I have for instance around 8 TB of log analysis PDFs which are around 20-30 mb per PDF. I know that's a special case but this is then a lot 'cheaper' for me to share with everyone who needs to see that growing amount of files than the way we use now.
