What upload utilities/places to use to exchange created file

#1 Post by Ryue »

I'm curious as I just had a situation where exchanging files via mails is not possible with a composer. Now skype is out of question (due to the policy changes over a year ago where microsoft gains ownership of all the creative work that has been exchanged via skype).

So I run into the question how to exchange files with a composer, artist, ... when neither mail nor skype are possible.
What options exist there?

Can you PM them on here?

There's also Discord, but I'm not sure if you can download anything from there.

How big are your files? what about dropbox (or other file sharing service) ?
You could also exchange files in IRC

My team uses google drive for the most part. If you are planning on sharing large data files you may want to looking into some sort of cloud storage or sharing service.

And I briefly looked into the skype thing. Doesn't seem to be real. Your files would be fine. It's the same freak out people have over thinking the deviant art site owned everything that was uploaded. Unless someone else can find more solid proof as I couldn't find anything definitive.

There was a big news report about it oh almost 2 years ago. The company I worked for stopped using skype because of that policy change. Could be they. Hanged the rules again as many companies had stopped using skype in response

The feeling of deja vu I had here was a little triply until I scrolled up and saw trooper6's response. o_0
