Paying for Gmail Beta

Google has lifted the invitation-only restriction on Gmail but it is still in Beta mode. The latest feature would be a additional storage space for heavy user for a small sum of fees per year, which makes me wonder who needs a 2GB ++ storage space for emails? I have no idea, anyone kind enough to enlighten me with some facts on why do we need email storage more than 1GB? Let alone 2GB?

Now that Google has more computing muscle, (Google co-founder Sergey) Brin said the company will start selling additional storage capacity to e-mail users with extraordinary needs. Google still hasn’t figured out the specifics, but Brin indicated the e-mail storage and fees to be introduced later this year would be similar to Google’s photo-hosting service that charges $25 annually for 6.25 gigabytes and $500 annually for 250 gigabytes. – AP Press

    I agread with you, do we need more storage, and for what?
    but i will be interesting if they add a feature to personalize the email adress with your own domain… Hrrrr but forget about 25 bucks just for it^o^.

    Like you i dont understand why someone need to have 2GB on space for their emails, it is not like you can mail people the complete DVD serie of friends.

    I personally love the fact that Gmail would offer MORE than even 2GB of storage space. I have been with Gmail and have loved it since Day actually ONE. I pulled up an email that was sent just days after I opened my account, and the attachement was of my niece walking….. Since I archieve all of my email, I was amazed that the attachment, and the email, was still intact after so many years. I just say BRAVO Gmail. BRAVO!

    i also love the large storage space, yes IF i liked Friends, and needed to have it on DVD, why not have it emailed to me, if you could email files that large, but if someone else is paying, i say they can keep adding as much crap as they want to gmail, that is why it is the best email client out there. not to mention, the FREE IMAP, and POP, that hotmail, doesn’t even offer, and yahoo charges $29 a year for. I LOVE U GMAIL!
