We love tarsnap and think it is wonderful. We want to live in a world where people like Colin are selling things for picodollars.
Our strong suit is the ability to point any SSH tool you like at our storage (rsync, mostly, but some folks point duplicity or unison).[1]
Also, as we run on ZFS and have daily/weekly snapshots enabled by default, you can just forget about incrementals or versions or datasets ... just do a dumb mirror to us every day and we'll maintain, live, browseable, in your account, what is essentially an offsite "Time Machine".
We have an HN readers discount. Email and ask about it.

- drKarl 12y agoYes, and I think your service is great. Just saying that it only starts to make sense when you need to backup 50Gb or more... If you just want to backup like 10Mb, or 200Mb or even 5Gb... On the other end, the more you need to backup the more sense it does, since your prices go down per Gb.
