Who else needs to share files bigger than 1 TB? Most cloud services, such as Google Drive or OneDrive, are more than sufficient for managing massive files. I don't see the appeal of this new service.

Oddly enough, I would argue the exact opposite direction; really big files are exactly where I want to do a direct p2p transfer without paying to store it in the cloud.
Google Drive throttles uploads over 5GB, and not everyone has a storage plan that could fit that.
It would save you the time to upload first, effectively halving the time required.
