Dropbox Pro is same rate (https://www.dropbox.com/plans). You do have to buy a it $10/month at a time, but you can get to it whenever you like without paying 9 cents per GB. AWS is usually worth it but it is never super cheap.
Which is around the same price as google drive: 1TB ~= $10. You will also get it immediately without going through the 3-5hrs penalty and supports instant preview of most files.
Although, the increment is much higher (Next tier is at 10TB ~= $100)
I use both -- Dropbox and Arq/Glacier. Dropbox does have fantastic accessibility and it's irreplaceable for sync, but for stuff like family photos it's nice to have a very cheap backup-of-my-backup
Or you could pay $7/month for office 365, get 1TB+, office and 60 skype minutes. You can even buy a $75 x86 tablet and get 1 year of free office 365 for a total cost of $6.25/month.
