Files On Ovi Now Free

Devin from The Nokia Guide came across some very interesting news today, and that is Files On OVI is not free of charge instead of the previous subscription package they used to charge

Devin has posted:

Files on OVI, Nokia’s service that allows you access files on your computer from any remote PC (via Web browser) or mobile device, used to cost:

- 10GB Monthly: €6.99
- 10GB Annual: €49.99
- 30GB Monthly: €12.99
- 30GB Annual: €99.99

but as of today, the service is now completely free!. If you currently have a paid subscription, you will receive a refund for the remaining portion of your subscription. Why make it free? Nokia says that:“On-the-go file access is a basic component of a complete mobile lifestyle offering. Providing Ovi Files for free enables Nokia to connect more people to Ovi and accelerate the creation of even more advanced Files and Ovi features.”

Files On Ovi was a great idea I think, and I was only put off by having to pay for a service you can get from other sources free so by Nokia making this move maybe OVI will start to be a serious player in the mobile content market.
