The initial 5 GB of free storage seems insufficient today, but the real problem lies in the gaps between the paid tiers.
Currently, Apple offers 50 GB for $0.99/month, 200 GB for $2.99/month, and 2 TB for $9.99/month. This structure leaves a significant gap, especially for those who need more than 200 GB but less than 2 TB.
The proposed solution by the media suggests changing the tiers: 100 GB for $1.99/month, 400 GB for $3.99/month, and 2 TB for $9.99/month. These changes would better meet modern data storage needs, offering a “golden mean” for users who find 200 GB insufficient and 2 TB excessive.
