Backblaze.com online backup service, anyone use it?

as saw in mba thread mention service, curious using it.

want know how runs, (is seamless time machine?)

have tried doing online restore of files?

how online full system restore? procedure , how long did take?

 

im using crashplan. heard backblaze doesnt preserve important hfs+ filesystem's file attributes/meta-data.

i'v been using crashplan few months. uploaded there 300 gigs(machintosh hd), , 800 gigs(my media disk) remaining of course have mirrored these locally (carbo copy cloner).

when tested backblaze, , got better transfer speeds, meta-data thingy didnt like, if true.
