That just happened about a week ago for me. For the second time since I starting using them. Just randomly upped my storage and upload limit. I plan to keep my box with them for the foreseeable future. I don't ever want to have to mess with VPN port forwarding. I have a home server I move my files to when I need more space on my box. But I don't use the home server for torrents.
Oh wow! That's awesome! I wonder if I'll see another upgrade soon too? I have a similar setup going too. Seed box for active torrents and other recently acquired files, and then anything I want to keep long term eventually gets moved to my local server.
I had tried a VPN + kill switch before getting a seed box, but it failed on me a few times. Plus, I was in school at the time, spending very little time at home, and my ISP increased their rates AGAIN, so I just cancelled my home internet. Trying to torrent through my laptop on public WiFi was a pain, but with a seed box it was way easier, and just needed to download the files to my laptop if I wanted to watch at home, which was also never a problem on public WiFi.
