Basket/checkout page should warn in advance about insufficient Ubuntu One storage

[Paul van Genderen]

After purchasing music, my Ubuntu One account is full and I can't access "My Downloads" ( LP#546330 ). So here's a proposal: On the basket page, show a bar graphic depicting the available Ubuntu One storage (with perhaps an option to upgrade) vs the storage needed to transfer the downloads.

This could be taken a step further by having a separate "wish list" such that one could use to not only take into account available Ubuntu One storage but also for instance a monthly traffic limit of the users ISP.

Since LP#546330 got fixed (thanks!!!), I see several items are still preparing or transferring. Can I safely assume that this is due to a stuffed U1 account, and second, these will transfer when more storage becomes available?

Paul - Have all of your songs downloaded yet (either to your desktop or your purchased music folder at https://one.ubuntu.com/files)? We have an internal reporting tool but it's shows lots of strange data. All purchased music should sync to your desktop even if you go over your storage limit.

No, I was still missing quite several songs. However, I don't know how to get back to my account as the hard drive I used before has died. My other hard drive has Ubuntu 8.04, but even if I'd upgrade that, the "My Downloads" page would be empty.
