@nb where you see long-term sustainability I see lack of long-term foreseeing. Why they were offering unlimited backups for home and family computers if they ended up realising home customers were no longer profitable because they might have been offering unrealistic storage (unlimited) at their price tiers.
So they decided to basically say screw you to loads of home customers and even suggested to move to another company called Carbonite which at the moment of Crashplan's announcement of ending the home accounts did not have any plan with unlimited storage.
Many of the the people that used Crashplan at home recommended the service to other friends, I know I did. In my opinion, they should have stopped taking in new home customers but honor the ones they had until they decided to move to another service or cancel their accounts. All the people I know that were using Crashplan have migrated to other services.
