Is 250MB file size max and 50GB total storage for free considered to be stingy now?

The 50GB is irrelevant because we're talking about file size. And yes, 250MB is 'not large', in that it blocks super bulky video files.

I would venture to say that most people use dropbox and similar services for image sync. Sure people use it for all sorts of things, but I would bet that the majority is images.
