MediaFire takes out file size restriction as it takes desktop apps out of beta
Tuesday, April 8, 2014 at 8:32PM 
MediaFire is looking to compete with the big dogs of cloud storage by taking its apps for Windows and OS X out of beta. The apps work similarly to the desktop apps of Dropbox, OneDrive, and Google Drive. It lets users upload files and photos instantly and share these with other people. Users can now also track new files shared by others. The file upload restriction has also been lifted for both free and paid users. You can now upload file sizes of up to 20 gigabytes.
The company also intends to launch iPad and Android apps in the coming weeks. MediaFire is also introducing a new one terabyte storage plan that will cost US$2.50 a month or $24.99 a year for a limited time. If you’re just looking for a larger cloud storage site, now might be the time to check out MediaFire’s offering.

I love DropBox and have used it for years both personally and in a business environment. The biggest challenge that they face is they provide a service that is easily replicated by any number of companies, including powerful ones like Google , Amazon and Microsoft. The services are a dime a dozen right now and they way I see it, there are two things that can set a company apart: 1) tight integration with multiple platforms and 2) lots of storage space. Dropbox is doing a great job on the integration front. But right now, they are getting pressure on the storage space issue. So right now I am making the switch to a product by Barracuda called Copy. They start you out with 20GB of space (more than I have on DropBox after years) and with referrals of 5GB a pop it can go up quickly from there. Check it out at https://copy.com?r=BlX7tm.
