Download: MiMedia Online Media Backup

Compared to Dropbox, its main competition, MiMedia is a good deal, offering twice the storage capacity for the same fee. But it doesn't show up as a drive in Windows.

"Who needs to back up to an external drive when you can back up to the cloud? MiMedia (various pricing) offers backup of all your important media files to secure servers on the Web for a monthly or yearly fee. Some backup solutions (such as Carbonite) bypass backing up media files altogether, unless you specifically instruct them to do so. MiMedia is idiot-proof: Just download, install, register your account, verify your e-mail address, then choose recommended settings and go.

I like how easy it is to set up and configure MiMedia. The recommended settings automatically back up the My Photos, My Music, My Videos and My Documents folders in their entirety. The basic setting skips the My Documents folder, and there's also an Advanced setting that can specify additional backup folders."
