Amazon Clouddrive Sync Clients

Rackspace Pricing looks affordable to me.
I was thinking about backing up my wordpress database directly into such cloud backup sites. I know amazon s3 and cloudrive are enough for it but are they secure ? or do i need to encrypt the files before uploading ?

I know s3 uses a two key security scheme to allow access to the data, with the two keys being randomly generated. I don't know if clouddrive uses the same format.

Today's Bits Du Jour has CloudZap for 50% off ($30). It says it works with Amazon S3, so maybe that includes Cloud Drive?

It seems affordable to me, too. But Amazon's Cloud Drive is about half the cost per GiB. Of course, you have to pay for specific increments of data with Cloud Drive, so if you're only going to be using 10 GiB of storage, you're still paying for 20 GiB, which is where Rackspace or S3 would win out.

Interesting idea... but it seems like a solution in search of a problem. And it's definitely not a sync client.
