I use Google Drive. Easy to use and you get 15GB free. Plays video in HD.
What's your online storage choice and why?

Dropbox for company stuff, Google Drive for personal stuff and OneDrive for school stuff

Hard to argue against gdrive especially when you can upgrade to 100gb for $1.99/mo
Gdoc integration free unlimited photo storage and how well it integrates with android phones put this way out front.

Only back up I use is Shutterfly (free unlimited) for all my photos.
Old home videos are on 2 sets of DVDs (one here, one 4 hours away at my parents house)

If you have a lsu.edu account, you get unlimited storage in Google drive. I also took advantage of a limited time offer with OneDrive last year, so I have 30gb of storage free there.

Dude, at some point you have to look at your time as money. You can make more money. You can't make more time.

I use Drive for personal things. We have a corporate Dropbox that I use for work matters.

I use three:
Google drive for docs/spreadsheets since I can access them anywhere with a browser
OneDrive for pics/videos because I like the app on my phone and I get 30GB for free
Dropbox - miscellaneous stuff

I use DropBox.
If you complete a few steps
-install the driver
-install the driver on more than one computer
-share a folder with more than one person
-download the app
-download their mail app and connect to DropBox
you can get up 51 Gb free

flickr give you 1TB for free. I have an HTC and use flickroid to upload from my phone.
It's not as user friendly as gdrive, but it's a lot of storage

SugarSync
Works with my existing folder/file structure so I don't have to drag stuff into a blue box.

Google Drive.
With the HTC one m8, free storage gets upped an extra 100gb (115gb total).
