What happens to an existing subscription of 6 people with 500GB stored each? Does Microsoft have an existing policy for a reduction of storage tiers? So your data effectively become read-only until you bring your total usage under 2TB? Are files deleted after a certain deadline? What a terrible article with no useful details.

I was thinking how the OneDrive/Google drive cloud storage offers can be easily emulated by LLM + S3 compatible storage. You can write a 10 lines skill file that basically says "when I ask you to upload a file, use this API key to upload it to the best suited path on my bucket"

OneDrive 2TB family: ~150/year. You can have such computer at home for 200usd I guess (used Wyse terminal with USB drive) The only reason people pay for cloud is that it is integrated into OSes (like Google cloud into android) and it is virtually impossible to get similar integration with a custom own cloud
