Should I use Dropbox or Google Drive to sync my database between computers?

I saved my TNT database to dropbox from my windows OS.  When I try to open it in my mac, it says "there is not a windows program configured to open this file".  How can I save this to open it both on my mac and pc?

It's not Dropbox exclusive.  "Dropbox Mode" is just an easy to describe nickname for the setting.

Although I am fond of Dropbox because if TntMPD's Dropbox Mode fails, and if both people make changes, Dropbox creaes a copy of the database that doesn't win the sync conflict, so that you can reconcile it later w/ TntSync.

I'm assuming the Dropbox Mode isn't really Dropbox exclusive?  Microsoft just amped up SkyDrive/Mesh and I'm hoping to accomplish the TntMPD DB share via that platform, plus get the "in use" warning if my wife has the file open.  Hope to test it out tonight...

This was very helpful for me and my husband who both use TnTMPD.  Thanks.
