People Choose Google Drive to Store and Share
When the powerful file storage and synchronization service – Google Drive was first launched on April 24, 2012, many Google fans and computer users had shown great interest in it, many Apple Music subscribers had also noticed Google Drive. Some may think it would be great to store and share Apple Music tracks with Google Drive since Google Drive provides free online storing space with 15 GB and it also incorporates a system of file sharing. This means users are not only able to store 15 GB of Apple Music tracks in Google Drive but also be able to share those tracks privately with particular users having a 'oogle account, using their @gmail.com email addresses or share with anybody who doesn't have a 'oogle account via a secret URL link.
What's more, Google Drive is also available for multiple devices. You can upload and sync your files on PCs running Windows 7 or later, Macs running macOS X Lion or later, Android devices running Android 4.1 or later, and iPhones & iPads running iOS 8 or later. Users can even use Google Drive on its official website without downloading an app. As we mentioned above, Google Drive gives every user 15 GB free online storage, but in fact, users can store over 15 GB of files in it since 'oogle One, 'oogle Docs, 'oogle Sheets and 'oogle Slides files do not count towards the storage limit. Besides, Google Drive also offers a paid service that allows users to expand their Google Drive storage by subscribing, the subscription prices are $1.99/month ($20.99/year) for 100 GB, $2.99/month ($29.99/year) for 200GB, $9.99/month ($99.99/year) for 2TB, $99.99/month for 10TB, $199.99/month for 20TB and $299.9/month for 30TB.
