As many have predicted that web hosting will become a commodity, cloud storage has started to show similar trend.

We have published an article about the future of cloud computing for business, and one of the predicted future is that with cloud computing, unlimited capacity and scalability would be made possible. It seems that the future has begun now; how about unlimited cloud storage to start unlimited capacity trend off?

Unlimited cloud storage: YouSendIt

YouSendIt is most probably the pioneer to a trend toward unlimited capacity by offering unlimited cloud storage.

YouSendIt has always been one of the best in helping both personal and business users to send files that are too large in size for sending via email. As reported by VentureBeat, now it shifts its gear toward the cloud by offering cloud storage, directly competing with Box.net, Dropbox and the likes.

Here’s a video showcasing the new, cloud-powered YouSendIt:

The unlimited plan has actually no catch, other than requiring for customers to pay a $14.99 monthly plan (YouSendIt’s 2GB plan is free.) This is ultra-competitive pricing, as Dropbox, offering similar cloud storage and file sharing solution, offers the same 2GB for free, but 50GB at $9.99/month and 100GB at $19.99/month.

The unlimited cloud storage is obviously attractive to micro-to-small businesses and personal users alike, despite the lack of add-on services (called components) inside.

So, if all you want is a reliable, no-frill cloud-based storage, YouSendIt is a clear winner.
