I was looking for a cheap backup tool, when I noticed Jungle Disk, who use Amazon's Simple Storage Service as their back-end.

Amazon only charge 15 cents per GB per month for storage, plus 20 cents per GB of transfer. As I want to transfer about 15GB of MP3s to somewhere offsite and update only as/when I get new ones, this strikes me as a fantastically cheap way of doing it.

I had been considering getting myself a networked hard drive and backing up to that, but when it's only going to cost me about $2 a month for storage, I can't really justify the up-front cost of getting one...

What about bank fees though - Lloyds TSB charge me £1 for every overseas transaction made.

Why don't you sell your brain and do some "work (http://www.mturk.com/)" for amazon instead, cancelling it out, even though it will invariably not work like that....
