Dropbox rival OneDrive had a considerable advantage up until this week: with an Office 365 subscription, users were offered unlimited storage. Microsoft announced that this is no longer the case and the limit is now 1TB.

The reason for this dramatic change in its storage offering is that some customers have been abusing this by backing up several computers and hard drives worth of data. "A small number of users backed up numerous PCs and stored entire movie collections and DVR recordings," OneDrive stated on its official blog. "In some instances, this exceeded 75TB per user or 14,000 times the average." The free OneDrive offering was 15GB and this will now drop to 5GB for both new and existing customers as of early 2016. blog.onedrive.com/onedrive_changes/
