Considerations: No data/account expiration/deletion (obviously no one expects to loose data that is required) Unlimited storage space Support higher file sizes  (10 GB of each, as of today that’s the maximum limit freely supported) No bandwidth limits for upload/download Password protection for download No wait times (captcha’s, etc,.) Support resumability for broken uploads/downloads Ease of upload/download like support for FTP, etc,. and/or a client side desktop manager tool/suite API support to automate uploads or downloads Higher privacy of data Earnability of premium services for data uploads/downloads I found http://www.1fichier.com/en offering most of there features to match best.
