That woudl be you making files available online fro your clients to access - A file dump would be you sticking 20,000 of them online

Its easy to justify - just ask how difficult would it be to replace them all and what would it cost you in time and money ? Now imagine the studio/garage/whatever burns down tomorrow afternoon...
Although if this is backup of physical media, you'd be better off burning a copy of the wma's to new dvd's and storing those dvds offsite - onlien archive is really only a better solution, when it's for data that you *need* to be able to access instantly in the event of a disaster.
