Tech Talk Apps: SkyDrive Paid Storage Plans, Upcoming PC and OS X Apps Revealed
Brazilian site Gemind has posted some screenshots of Windows Live SkyDrive that suggest applications for PCs and Macs as well as paid storage options are coming to the service. We’ve heard rumors before that paid storage was on its way to SkyDrive, but the screenshots leaked today show that an extra 20GB, 50GB, or 100GB will be offered for $10, $25, or $50 per year, respectively. None of that is confirmed, but if that does end up being the final pricing, Microsoft will be severely undercutting competing services like Dropbox (which currently offers 50GB for $9.99 and 100GB for $19.99 per month). @Yungjohnnybravo @TatWZA
