forwards of the official launching tomorrow , Kim Dotcom ’s Megais live earlyfor some members of the insistency . The landing pageboy atmega.co.nznow redirect tohttp://kim.com/mega(in Safari ) and show an error to hoi polloi using Chrome . Here ’s everything we know so far about the new Megaupload .
First of all , Mega is not finished — harmonise to TechCrunch’sstory , the launched site will include a roadmap for what ’s forrader . It include some ambitious clue including an SDK with amply document API , quislingism features like user - to - user messaging .
What we do know : The service is basically a Dropbox ringer that will tender 50 GB of storage for free and then three tiers of serve Pro 1 for € 10 ( 500 GB of storage ) , Pro 2 for € 20(2 TB of storage ) , and Pro 3 € 30 ( 500 GB of storage ) .
It ’s still to early to pass any kind of judgement on the usable information , but we ’re still look for a feature article that we could n’t get somewhere else . Did Dotcom use his control of hype to blow up the image of dull Robert William Service ? We have trouble believing it .
