Best Cloud Storage Offers Even Unlimited Backups at Ridiculously Cheap Cost

GoPro Subscription Unlimited Cloud Storage Is Hard to Beat

I was looking for cloud storage to save my video clips and pictures, especially when I travel. I wanted an additional backup in the cloud, in case I lose both my SD cards and portable hard drives.

But it’s almost impossible to find unlimited cloud storage. I had narrowed it down to either Google One or Microsoft 365. Goggle One 2 TB costs CA$139.99 per year (they don’t have a 1-TB plan) and Microsoft 365 costs CA$79.00 per year for 1 TB.

Both would work for travel needs, but they are nowhere near unlimited. Then while buying my new GoPro 10, I accidentally found a GoPro Subscription that offers unlimited cloud storage for $59.99 and other benefits such as discounts on GoPro cameras and accessories.

The GoPro Subscription for $59.99 has blown my mind because of the value it offers. It offers convenience, as I don’t have to manually transfer my clips from my GoPro cameras anymore. Whenever I come home and plug it in to charge, it starts saving them on the cloud automatically. Later on, I just download them from the GoPro site to my computer to start editing.

But it’s not the convenience that is causing me to continue my subscription beyond the 1st year. It’s the unlimited storage that hooked me to this. I doubt other providers would offer unlimited cloud storage even for thousands of dollars. If you look at the annual rates for any other service, you can see that it would be very expensive had they offered any unlimited option.

Sure, a GoPro Subscription has disadvantages. Some of them are that you can only save video and picture files, nothing else. It doesn’t have nice, visually pleasing layouts like Google or Microsoft. It also doesn’t have search capability or options to stash files by folders or names.

But those flaws don’t bother me. My GoPro Subscription fulfills my needs of having a backup to save my videos and pictures and it’s not only limited to GoPro files. I can save anything from my phone or computers as long as they are video or picture files.

My next trip will be a lot more efficient, as I don’t need to worry about losing my physical backups. I also don’t have to spend hours saving them manually to my portable drives, if I choose not to save them and am happy with only saving on the cloud.
