Recession squeezes Online Storage

There have been a spate of failures of online storage providers from high visibility brands like AOL Xdrive to specialists MediaMax, Omnidrive and MyVirtualDrive. Ouch, your precious data is gone!

What lies behind this? The problem is that online storage costs money and that's rather tight right now.

There is competition among online storage providers to gain customers because they're locking their users in for years of fees (when you stop paying fees they throw away your backups). The ones that don't charge enough are going bust and the others will be charging more to survive the recession.

But there's another way, backup your data using Cucku to people you trust and keep your money in your pocket.
