Yup.. just upgraded from the 1yr one i had.. (those old 1yr contracts don't upgrade on size and was cheaper than the monthly package)

I'll be on the 50GB. For 15 bucks its really not bad at all.

Yeah 50 gigs is enough for most activities outside of large backups, and i'm beginning to think large online backups are not really worth the hassle considering our slow upload speeds and the cheap cost of local storage.

I wish they allowed OSX backups to remote. 50GB is sufficient for photos + some vid (created) and ios device backups

It's only a matter of time. Right now OS X is going through much needed refinements. This will probably be available in the next couple of years.
