Learning to use some backup tool that does same things sounds way better than paying 10 times more for the storage cost that lasts.

There's also a service like rsync.net where you can just rsync to the destination and they do the versioning and so on for less than 10th of the cost of tarsnap.



Eh, cost/benefit; some people are backing up 100MB of documents and don't care, some people are backing up terabytes of media and have the time.
