I use Tarsnap and it's great for two big reasons:
1. Deduplication. I have a 10gb database but only about 30mb changes every day. So I can backup the full database each day but only pay for an extra 30mb.
2. Security. Colin is an expert in security and Tarsnap has a respectable bug bounty program. Plus I can have a Tarsnap crypto key which only allows read and write - no delete - which adds an extra layer of security in case a hacker gains access to my server.
