They may be just building a user base (which is cool, it's done all the time like this)...

"If, at a later date this service is no longer free and you choose not to subscribe prior to the end of your free period, your access to FileFront may be terminated and any content you have stored on FileFront may be removed"

Anyone interested needs to read the agreement on this one for sure...

Bandwidth and storage is costing somebody something obviously so they'll probably have a "premium" service at some point but hey, if it helps out now, there it is.

This part of the User Agreement was 'the catch' for me. It is probably the most applicable (and disagreeable) portion in regards to everyone here. Basically, if you post your short filim or something on their servers they have the right to sell it AND even to make derivative works from it.

i agree i wouldnt put short films on there, but for the rest of us who like to show off our test footage such as adapter tests, that would be great.
