Everyone is like, OMG backup/OMG too costly for backup/LOLOLOl!!!1one!!.
WTF, where's the backup my harddrive button??
Amazon didn't start runing an FTP server for you to store your crappy pictures and emo mp3s. They are providing a web service, the whole point of a web service is to provide the building blocks for developers to take advantage of.
OMG is costs so much.
You can build your own subscription download service that charges users to download from 'you' while in the back-end you fetch content from amazon's servers. What amazon is providing is a reliable, no-hassle back-end solution to whatever you want to build ontop of it. Or use BitTorrent, they support it too...
ZOMG backup.
Will everyone quit talking about backups. Start thinking about what else you could do with with this an the rest of Amazon's web services. plz? kk, thx
