    Dropbox, Microsoft Sky, Google Drive etc all offer about 5GB for free. MS Sky is accessible to users with an MSN/Hotmail login and Drive is accessible/sharable to people with a Google Account. Dropbox is available to anyone - they can create an account (well applies to Sky and Drive too).

    We use both GDrive and Dropbox.

    Dropbox is easier to use, free, integrates with pretty much every mobile phone app and is more mature.

    Check the terms of service of whichever service you choose, Google Drive apparently says in theirs that by using their service you grant Google a license to use your data in pretty much any way they want.
