Filefront.com?

they offer free "unlimited" storage and bandwidth, what's the catch? They're offering it totally free? I'm thinking on joining? Anyone here have any past expiriences with them? Thanks, Jesse.

No such thing as unlimited storage/bandwidth.

No experience with them.

I would not even give someone offering or saying they have unlimited storage/bandwidth a second look paid or free.

They are only fooling you and themselves whether they know it or not.

Now unmetered is close but not all the same. If someone wants to give you unmetered storage/bandwidth where they really don't monitor how much you use hay go for it. But unlimited that is a joke on you if you take it as far as unlimited storage/bandwidth goes.

All of my files are encryed with WinRAR, WinZIP and another tool at 256 AES, unless they want to distibute my encrypted files, I don't care.

Good find. With terms like that I'd stay away. Very far away.
Good find. That's one of the nastiest terms of service that I have ever read. sell?
