I have a multi-tier strategy. Anything I'm going to complain about
losing is backed up daily to S3 with duplicity, end of story. Stuff
like MythTV recordings and such which would be an inconvenience to
lose gets backed up daily to ext4 just in case btrfs gives out on me.
Otherwise I trust mirroring enough for that sort of thing.
If it isn't automatic, daily, and offsite, it isn't backed up as far
as I'm concerned.
