Scratt I have been using dropbox for a while. I like it so far. I even transferred an episode of battlestar onto it so that a couple of my friends could watch it (directly through dropbox). It has been very useful for me. If anyone needs an invite just pm me your email.

I have not used mozy but dropbox has a couple of interesting features. For instance you have the ability to retrieve previous versions of your file (so far that has been true for me in terms of powerpoint and word documents). You can also share specific folders with people. Or you could provide the url to a specific file. Uploading is really really easy. I haven't treated it like a backup service, and in my opinion it doesn't seem to be for that purpose either. It just makes access to files across different computers a lot easier for you and other people in your group.
