Hello everyone! I own a medium sized online backup service. Generally we service the small to medium enterprise market. But, we are also fully capable of servicing home users as well. I've been considering putting up a server or two strictly for bitcoin clients with a focus on anonymity. I searched around, but to my surprise I didn't find any similar services. So I have a few questions if you wouldn't mind indulging me.

Do you think there is a market for a bitcoin backup service?

Would you personally be interested?

What sort of features would you want to see in the service? (basic file backup, MS SQL backup, MySQL Backup, Oracle Backup, Ms Exchange backup, HyperV backup, ESx backup... ect)

What concerns would you want to see addressed?

What sort of price point would you expect to see? (in USD)

By the way, one of my favourite things about our software is that the backups are cryptographically secure. Meaning that before your data leaves your computer, it is encrypted using your password. (I can get into the gory algorithm details if you like) We only retain a one-way encrypted hash of your password on our servers meaning you and only you can access your data.

EDIT: Hrm, I'm getting a lot of views and not many responses. Perhaps I should be offering a something for your time.. So, I'll hand out 20GB accounts to the first 20 respondents as long as we get 20+ responses regardless of if we deploy or not and/or what your opinion is.

EDIT2: Ok, have to go out for a while. I'll be back in a few hours.
