Apple has enabled iCloud's Buy More Storage option in the iOS 5 beta beta and here are the prices:
- 5GB: Free (every iOS 5 user will get this by default)
- 10GB: $20/year (including the 5GB free, that's 15GB total)
- 20GB: $40/year (25GB total)
- 50GB: $100/year (55GB total)
So pretty much $10 a month for ever additional 5GB.
By contrast, 50GB on DropBox will run you $9.99/month (just under $120/year), though it provides a different, less abstracted online storage and sync environment than iCloud does. (It also has 100GB and 350GB+ options.)
You can cancel within 15 days of upgrade or 45 days after a yearly payment. Again, this is in the beta so it's possible pricing and tiers could change by final release time this fall.
