Finally, somebody being smart enough to give unlimited storage. One of the primary reasons gmail took off was unlimited storage, at a time when people were very space conscious and had to keep deleting emails.
But when it was released the marketing message was that the storage on Gmail was "infinity +1" since you get 1GB to start and the storage would grow slowly forever, thus infinity.

Gmail didn't have unlimited storage at launch; it gave 1GB of storage, which back then felt like unlimited (relative to Yahoo's 50MB limit, anyways).
OneDrive had a 1TB limit before this announcement, which isn't as dramatic of a comparison.
