Protectmyphotos...from what?
I just stumbled upon this backup for pictures site called ProtectMyPhotos. Basically they say they offer unlimited backup space for your photos( they also allow files and videos backup but you need to specify it on your preference page).
What's tricky is that when they say unlimited, they only mean about 40,000 pictures. They say that only 1% of typical users need more than that amount. They don't even say if that's for the initial $39.95 service or for the free account. So what's the point of saying unlimited? When if you exceed 40gb you will need to pay another $39.95 a month.
All in all, I think the service is quite appealing to some, but they need to be clearer on how they actually bill the clients and on what the free accounts really get. I wouldn't subscribe to it myself but feel free to try it out, maybe it will work for you, maybe not. :D
PS: having backups of your images is one way of protecting it, but how protected are those pictures from being copied and duplicated?
