I think he was referring to Amazon S3 prices which are up around the numbers he mentioned. But Amazon also has "Glacier" for 3/4 of one penny per month, and Backblaze has an S3 competitor for even less at 1/2 of one penny per month.
Don't forget Google Nearline. $0.01/GB/month, same access speeds as S3.
Calling Nearline speeds the "same" is dependent on how much data you are storing per account, 4MBps per TB stored[0].
Disclosure: I work on Google Cloud (but not Nearline).
Yes, and Google's cheaper storage offering as well.
Amazon have Cloud storage, I am using it with 11TB right now. Fixed monthly price, 60 bucks a year. I have a cron script running thats sync with cloud drive twice a day. Delete, download, store as often as you want. I have seen couple of people on reddit storing 300+ tb, so you know you are at least safe till you reach that limit.
care to share some of the cron script??
cron simply runs rclone through a bash script. Should dfinately checkout rclone, http://rclone.org/
Until they realize offering unlimited storage is unsustainable and scale back the limits like countless cloud storage services have done before...

What do they have 300TB of, if it's not a rude question... ;-)
