If you were paying $60/year for 2-3T of cloud storage then Amazon was subsidizing you. Even Glacier would cost $120/year for 2.5T, and Glacier is so cheap that everyone's trying to figure out how they could possibly sell Glacier and still be making money.

Isn't the catch that you have to pay to get your data out of there?
