    I gave up on cloud services completely some time ago. Encrypting files before uploading is too much a hassle, and the thought that after a service like Dropbox gets hacked (and it will be some day) all my 500+ projects plus half a dozen album masters flying around the net is not really desirable.

    I myself don't use Cloud-syncing anymore, thanks to too many "accidents" with lost data, albeit thanks to my own ignorance or ineptitude. I do back things up to and share via the Cloud, by personal preference, to Copy, Box, and Mega – which provide 15, 10 and 50 GB, respectively, for free per account. Per Edward Snowden's vociferous suggestion, I got a Spider Oak account, but when I learned that he's not to be trusted, I stopped using it. I do have tons of Google Drive storage, but they're already reading my e-mails.

    i use it store and share collab projects, it works good, but projects get really large fast. hmm hope i can catch on these promotions again.
    now on 9.8GB. but so far it work, when the projects get bigger, i split and use mega for the collab.

    For collab projects, https://trello.com/ may help you. It's like google wave but, on a second thought I never knew what google wave was about. So it's good for collabs shortly :}

    I prefer Splice. Not exactly a file hosting service, but it's meant for music and collabs.
