No iDisk in iCloud: alternative recommendations?

I'm not alone in my annoyance at the loss of iDisk now that MobileMe is being replaced with iCloud. I'll skip the rant.

What file sharing system are other iDisk users planning to use after June 30? Personal experience, recommendations, links to reviews, anything that would be helpful in making a decision on whether to use a free service or a paid service. Must be able to access from the web using both Windows and Mac based OS and from my Apple devices.

I use iDisk to share photos & music and referencing confidential documents when working remotely.

iDisk-OTHER, Mac OS X (10.7.4)

Welcome to the Apple community.

I opted for Dropbox. I use it to share work files between my two offices, others also use it, so it needed to be simple, Dropbox is simple, just like iDisk. If you want more options though sugarsync could be a option.

I also use dropbox and love it! It seamlessly syncs between multiple computers and has an iPhone and iPad app (free). Since it's one of the most common options, it's also integrated into MANY iPhone and iPad apps. The free version

There are other good options out there as well, including box.net and sugarsync. Check out a couple of them at this link
