Unlimited permanent online storage in the form of automatic data backups can be had for $55-60/year from services like Carbonite and Mozy.
Although USB drives can also corrupt easily - I recently lost almost 8GB worth of data when my drive malfunctioned leaving me with random characters in filenames and supposedly 300 GB in the folders.
