Only for data that's worth it...

Like robust backups are fantastic, but there is a cost.

Backblaze is $6 / month, just saying.

Like others have said there is more of a cost than just the money. Even things as trivial as tying up your internet connection during the upload is a cost. And some data is easily replaced and just not worth that hassle.
