S3 is fairly much awesome. Has anyone here ever lost data in S3 (not counting human/admin errors)? I've twice had issues with EBS volumes, but never with S3. Also, at least for my applications, S3 is so cheap.

Anyway, I may get bit by this someday, but I infrequently back up what I keep in S3.


I would expect that what I store in any cloud server is never lost, so having two problems would EBS would be enough for me not to trust them again.
