I make, on average, 40K requests a month which is like $2 while my storage costs are ~$22. At the low end you'll be paying what seems like a lot for requests but as things scale your requests costs become a much smaller percentage. You an cut down on requests by moving to daily backups (what I do) and narrowing down what you're backing up. Backing up your applications folders will take a ton of requests (Some apps have upwards of 1000 assets whose bless values may change if you open the application and this trigger Arq)
