Yeah I think I'll pass. SkyDrive gives me 25GB and their "access any file on your computer (even those outside of your skydrive folder) from skydrive.com" feature is amazing.

Plus like someone else already mentioned, having GDrive download hyperlinks is subpar imo. I'd rather get the doc or xls back, edit it on a client, and have it re-upload and convert to gdoc format.

SkyDrive: 25gb (or 7 which is still > 5), cheaper plans, you can access your entire computer from skydrive.com, and it already has iphone/ipad clients.

I really don't see a reason why anyone should use GDrive over SkyDrive unless they were a heavy gdocs user.

Microsoft continues to cling to some weird file extension restrictions regarding what you can do with SkyDrive. Leading to idiotic documentation notes like this:

"(downloading any audio file type, and uploading Waveform Audio File Format (.wav) only, is supported)"

Yeah, I get it. No MP3. But dozens of common file formats are missing and they just quietly added support for a few Adobe types. Yes, SkyDrive: the system that won't let you store an .eps file.

A lot of people would use Google over Microsoft because of the good will and reputation Google currently holds.

Not sarcastic. I personally do not like Google or their supposed morals, but I'm not "a lot of people" :P

Or uses Android.
