Why in the world should I trust one big corporation with my files as opposed to another?
(Google v. Microsoft) |

Well, If I have to choose one over the other, it sure wouldn't be MS. Still it's pretty stupid from my view to store your files/information where you have virtually no legal assurance of ownership or privacy or even security. I'm positive that, if they all go bye bye tomorrow, you'll be up a creek without a paddle. |

@jimf, Exactly - and there's no assurance that Google won't use any of my files nor access them without my knowledge or permission. Read the User agreement carefully. I use them for gmail - but I use that account for non-sensitive things. |

>"Still it's pretty stupid from my view to store your files/information where you have virtually no legal assurance of ownership or privacy or even security."< I'm confused. Are you talking about Google, or your Windows partition? |
