The question of how much Data produces different recommendations. For example if over 5TB rsync.net
Man $500 a month for 50TB.
For less than that, I could buy 5x10TB hard drives every two months. Sure there's value in the hosting and internet, but why is it so damned expensive compared to the price of hosting it?
You're paying for redundancies in different regions, migrations, backups, upgrades, maintenance, generally not having to worry about losing your data. The storage costs nothing.
