AWS S3 infrequent access is $40/month. If it's really archival
backup AWS has glacier which is less than $20/month, but it's
name gives you an idea of what it is. <br>

<p>The other issue with Glacier is that you have to keep old
versions around for (IIRC) 6 months to avoid being charged
extra, which can really add up for weekly backups or
what-have-you.</p>
<p>I'm looking at a switch from AWS to B2 myself. I use
Backblaze's desktop product on a Windows machine and love it.</p>
<p>Another possibility for sync similar to Google Drive is
Jottacloud. Haven't tried it myself, but it looks very
competitive for personal stuff. <a

<p>Yeah, with AWS you have to be extremely careful because they
meter *everything*. They are the new phone company.</p>
