We use duplicity to backup similar stuff to Amazon S3. Duplicity does 
all the heavy lifting of compression, delta, encryption with GPG. Amazon 
S3 just needs to be there for you to grab the file (even if someone 
grabs the files they are GPG encrypted).

If you trust Amazon S3 to be there when you need the files, I highly 
recommend it.
