I've switched to using Arq for my backups. It's not a service like Mozy/Backblaze, you purchase the Arq client (30 bucks) and then it backs up to your own S3 account.
The fact it is not a service has lots of positive benefits for me:
The company can die and I can still recover my files (there's an open source recovery tool on github - https://github.com/sreitshamer/arq_restore https://github.com/sreitshamer/arq_restore
It also does away with some of the stupid restrictions typically found with Backblaze/Mozy with respect to backing up network drives.
Incremental backups are lightning fast.
It keeps a "Time Capsule" style incremented history of your recently changed files.
