Unless you like privacy. Partially nude photos in your private folder on OneDrive can get your whole Microsoft account banned. [1]

I'd like something a little more privacy-friendly, not that plays "team games" with NSA.

What I like the most is the integration of OneDrive with Microsoft Office 2013. But Microsoft successfully "force" me to use OneDrive because I bought Surface RT, which the best Windows 8 application for syncing file so far is OneDrive.

Nowadays, I rarely use Dropbox anymore if it is not for group projects. I don't know why but OneDrive seems unpopular among my friends.

No Linux support.

Not everyone needs that, though. It's still a valid suggestion.

Adopting OneDrive would then prevent you from ever adopting Linux in the future without migrating all data to a different service. You may be confident you don't use Linux now, but are you confident you'll never need Linux support? How confident are you with adopting a tool that's not OS agnostic?

Yeah, that is a downside, but for me it's OK, since I only use Linux on my web servers.
