It doesn't have to be large files, file sharing sucks. Even copy/past across devices, even your own devices, is a pain. How many times did I email myself some links to share them across devices. And I'm not even speaking about sharing pictures with people not very accustomed to technology (in other words, don't try to get them install a cloud storage app).

I gave that question a few tries but I feel part of the problem is the market being saturated by giants doing half the job. Another part of it is the lack of interoperability regarding file sharing between operating systems. I mean - a native right click>send to>user - native notification to the user with a solution to direct p2p download from that person. No software needed, seemless integration. Why is that so hard?

I really wish the big boys would give that a try rather than giving us toy-like features and price bump.
