Where to get a cost effective 500GB of durable cloud storage?

I am consolidating my personal backup strategy and am looking for the best deal in durable offsite storage.

The best deal I've found so far is Amazon EBS mounted on a spot priced micro EC2, which is about $55 / month in total for 500GB.

Given the cost of raw HDD storage, I'm sure I can do a lot better than this.

What good alternatives do others use?

NB1: I have OSX and Linux servers to backup

NB2: Backblaze would be awesome, but it doesn't support Linux or have an API yet.
