Family plan not worth the cost.

Family plan not worth the cost.

Family plan costs $1 per month for 3TB less storage. What is the benefit of getting a family plan? I could just sign in with the 1 username on all of the household devices.

If you're one person, that would be fine, and is how Dropbox is intended to work. If you have multiple users, everyone would have access to everything in the account, instead of each person having their own separate account along with access to a shared Family Room folder. Also, sharing an individual account with multiple people is against the terms and could result in the account being deleted.
