A comment on Box for iPhone and iPad 50GB offer. Parent comment

"they don't allow you to store large files and that is what they want you to pay for...you can see here maximum file size is 250mb without paying"

I found that comment a bit jarring. Is 250MB file size max and 50GB total storage for free considered to be stingy now?

The 50GB is irrelevant because we're talking about file size. And yes, 250MB is 'not large', in that it blocks super bulky video files.

I would venture to say that most people use dropbox and similar services for image sync. Sure people use it for all sorts of things, but I would bet that the majority is images.
