Yeah, they're great.  I of course have sftp/smb/rsync enabled and only allow
FTP access when through my VPN.  Their service is well firewalled, so you
have to request holes, which they're happy to customize.

Yeah, both.  I wasn't impressed with the SLA, and the access methods don't
appeal to me.  It feels a lot more like a CDN, than a secure remote storage
solution - then again, maybe I'm just old fashioned.
