I imagine Dropbox are overselling and banking on most users not using 1 TB. Amazon S3 charges $30/mo for 1 TB of storage.

Still doesn't make sense you can find $60 1TB drives.

And then what does it cost to rent a datacenter, power the thing and the server it's in, and pay for bandwidth?

In any case I do agree their numbers look really high (they need to factor in redundancy and their own margin) and could very well turn out to be either a VC cash grab or an outright scam (malware)
