Looking into my crystal ball...

I give this 2-3 months before file transfers are limited due to multi-terrabyte daily transfers from accounts hosting pirated media.

Nah, that will come 3 months later when to keep providing a world class service they will have to discontinue the free accounts.

But don't worry, they will give existing customers great upgrade deals.
