  • Box.net Offers iOS Users 50GB Of Free Cloud Storage


    Box.net offers 50GB of free storage to iOS users

    Box.net has announced they are offering a promotional free 50GB of storage to iOS users, beginning at 12:01 PM PST Friday, October 14th. up to the next 50 days. Cool ha?!

    Follow these steps:

    1. Use your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch to visit the App Store and download the App.
    2. Log in to your account or register for a new one directly from the app.
    3. That’s it

    On top of 50GB of free storage, accounts will receive an increased file size limit of 100MB instead of 25MB. Box.net has over 7 million users, and the app was recently updated to support iOS 5. That means the app supports AirPlay.

    The 50GB of storage is ten times what Apple’s iCloud service offers users for free, and is being offered free with no strings attached. A comparable amount of storage on DropBox would cost $9.99 per month, and a comparable amount of storage through Apple’s iCloud service would cost $100 per year.

    Box.net can be used to store photos, documents, videos, music, or other digital files safely on Box.net’s servers.
