Without this sounding like an advert, I could also recommend my employer's product: SquirrelSave (http://www.squirrelsave.co.uk).  While it is intended for Windoze users primarily, the backend is powered entirely by rsync over SSH, so it's not hard to script something that would perform the backup for you.  No limits on the amount that can be stored either.  Also historical copies are kept too.
