Unless I missed a pricing plan for private individuals.

interesting. Have you used this yet? If it's free, it's great, but even the paid options are very reasonable.

Hah I just opened an account with them last week.

Well I created an account, I'm going to pay here soon, you get 30 days free at first using their online storage.

The free account only allows you to back up to your friends computers, or other computers you own that have their client installed and authorize you to dump data to them. Its like a peer to peer backup type thing, but only for people who grant you access etc, and your backups just get sent to them encrypted so they can't look or tamper with it.

For 50$ a year you can back up to their cloud as much as you want. This is the most reasonable price I've seen anywhere for a cloud backup solution which is why I'm using them. I've been wanting to back up all my dj sets and mp3s offsite but it has been to expensive until I saw this. Its going to take like 12 days to do the initial upload all 400GB of my music though. Doh.
