I need to buy some cloud storage and upload about 50 to 75GB of photos from a trip over seas. I have never used any paid cloud storage previously and wanted to get some feedback on who you all think is the best and easiest to use.

GO.

If you have a PS4/X1, they have that storage capability to transfer from USB/Share Card to online, etc.
 
why use cloud? You can get an external or even a couple of sticks for less.
 
Google offers 100GB for $10 a month and it would be tied directly to you Google account. (providing you have one)

You can use several different free ones to reach that much storage, but paying $10/month is a lot less hassle and its backed by a proven provider. (Ie minimal risk of luck as)
 
I use Google Drive and Dropbox. Can't go wrong with either.
 
I get 30GB free from onedrive (MS) and 15GB free from google drive. It really isn't that difficult to get it free.
 
For cheap, long term photo storage I use Amazon S3. I wrote a script that syncs my photos with amazon every morning. If you are just looking for a place to back up the photos in the cloud, this is a great choice. If you want some sort of album you can send a link to, it's not. (not without a little work)
 
Google Drive, if the photos are below a certain resolution (which I can't remember right now), doesn't count photos against your storage space. So, you could potentially store them all for free.

Even if you had to pay for it, they're still really cheap.
