Former Apple MobileMe Storage Users Can Get 15GB on SkyDrive for 1 Year. Cost = 1 email

On August 2, 2013, Apple started informing former MobileMe users who were receiving complimentary storage space on iCloud, that the free ride ends on September 30, 2013. When Apple introduced iCloud and killed off MobileMe, they offered customers 25GB of free storage to help ease their pains and satiate their complaints over the failed MobileMe service.

As of the September 30^th deadline, Apple will force those MobileMe migrants to either pare back their iCloud usage to 5GB, or pay for additional space. Pricing for additional storage on iCloud is $20 per year for 10GB, $40 for 20GB, or $100 for 50GB.
