I've been a tarsnap users for years (keeping personal photos and emails). I'm really please with the service.
I added a cron script years ago with the right paths/filenames, and cron emails me the output (the default). Eventually, the script got a bit more complex, because I wanted a nicer email subject, and being other silly aesthetics.
Still, the service is great and deduplication is awesome: data transfer is extremely low every day, but I have a separate archive for every day for the last several years.
I have a backup of my tarsnap keys off-site, so I don't lose any photos even in case of things like the house burning down. As for emails, chances are I'll never have to need those backups, since they're on my laptop, desktop, and fastmail.
