It's way more than a simple dropbox client, it's a integrator of those all cloud storages out there. Pretty useful, have been looking for something like that.

One downside is that there is no Linux version planned (right?).

One thing: "Your first 2 accounts are absolutely free!". What 2 accounts exactly means? Is it linking 2 accounts of those services (like Google Drive and Dropbox)?

Another: on the pricing page, "Perpetual updates" is a pro of getting a paid subscription. How limited is the free version in terms of upgrades?

We're actually working on both Linux and Mac clients right now; we just started with Windows.

Right now, you can add two different services for free, adding more requires a subscription - we're still trying to figure out exactly what the right pricing model is.

We don't currently plan on limiting the free version in any way, or not providing updates and bugfixes in future (beyond the two-services limit), our wording could be better here.

I realize the subscription model is likely more attractive from a business standpoint, but as a consumer, I don't see why I would want to pay a monthly or yearly fee for this app - I'd prefer ownership to leasing (which is the norm for applications not requiring server usage).
