For busineses purposes, offsite backup makes a lot of sense; you don't have control over the fire producing/theft proclivities of your commercial neighbors. On the other hand, for home purposes, $20 a month (plus the cable tv-like rate increases) doesn't make a lot of sense for me when hardware mirrored drives will stop 95% of home data loss.

It's more than just business. If one already has the higher speed interconnect, and if one isn't computer savvy, and if one data loss would be a serious bother, then the $20 may well be worth it. And for the non-computer savvy, it may be the only solution that works.
