Arq does incremental backups... but does it do incremental <i>restores</i>? i.e. if I have already restored the backup to another computer, can I later fetch just what has changed? This is the only feature missing from duplicity[1] to make it perfect.<p>[1] <a href="http://duplicity.nongnu.org/" rel="nofollow">http://duplicity.nongnu.org/</a>

Nice. I checked, and the source to the restore tool has been updated too:<p><a href="https://github.com/sreitshamer/arq_restore" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/sreitshamer/arq_restore</a><p>(I haven't run a test restore with it yet, though.)

Nice! I've been using Arq for some time and it's great for selective backup (I use Backblaze for bulk backups.) Stefan, the developer of Arq, is also quick to reply and very helpful.

Could someone explain the benefit of backing up to S3 as opposed to just a service like Mozy, Backblaze, or Dropbox?

Just use Crashplan - <a href="http://www.crashplan.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.crashplan.com/</a><p>Unlimited backups on one computer for $50/year (USD) - <a href="http://www.crashplan.com/consumer/store.vtl" rel="nofollow">http://www.crashplan.com/consumer/store.vtl</a><p>Encrypt your files with your account password, a passphrase, or a local encryption key. Incremental backup and lots of other goodness.
