So far, I'm not all that impressed with Bandwagon. It's locked up on me more than Windows ME did and I'm only 3,429 files into my 11,129 to FTP over. I'm using a local FTP server and my LAN to do the transfer, but it's not going as fast as I would have hoped. Once Time Machine is on my machine, I'll be able to stop using a lot of software I am using not to backup various parts of my system.

That's worth saving hours per month of my time :) Dancer, FTP is not hard but for $2/month, you save oodles of time, get continuous and automatic backup and don’t have to select folders/files and do anything manual.

It seems like anyone with enough web storage for their iTunes library wouldn't need to pay for someone else to run the transfer. It's not as if FTP is hard, y'know? …I don’t know.

Something about the "Amazon" name just makes me feel better. :) In regards to the Mozy.com comment…I honestly much prefer Amazon S3 or my own FTP solution over a relatively unknown service.

It's a BYOB. It uses either FTP to an account of your own to back it up, or an Amazon S3 account, which charges minimal monthly fees for backup. I use their service. It’s a BYOB.
