In reply to Brad. Hi Brad, honestly its because I had never heard of it. I will look into it though, thanks. As for the Google Music, well this unfortunately only applies to the US. Here in the UK Google Music is a thing of mere fantasies.

In reply to Brad.

Since I don’t plan on ever paying for 3/4G and just use Wifi, sugarsync lets me keep notes offline in a txt file and sync it when I get Wifi again. I’m a big google docs user, but Drive doesn’t currently support offline edits.

Also, if you’re counting music as a factor, you have to take Google Music into account since you can upload 20,000 songs and play them anywhere in your browser or with the Android app.

Why isn’t SugarSync on here? It’s the only one with an Android client that actually syncs files both ways, not just lets you pick a file to manually download (which IMO is barely more useful than emailing yourself files). Plus, you can add folders from your desktop to sync without moving them, then choose which device to sync it to and change the destination directory if it doesn’t already exist (like between Windows and OSX)

In reply to chris. I couldn't agree more. On the upside I just did a massive move around of Data in Skydrive and it didn't upload everything again, it was clever enough to move it around on all devices without a complete resync...

Very helpful comparison!

Good to see another vote of confidence for SkyDrive. I have been using it for several years (Mesh included). I am just waiting, very impatiently, for selective file sync. This is a must if I am going to throw 100GB of data up there and keep it from syncing to my small SSD drives on portable devices. Maybe I am missing something in Windows 8?
