I would like to argue with this one slightly. Most of the backups I do are
for disaster recovery (ie. fire, monumental screwup, disk failure, etc.).
I don't need generations of data because our policy is that we don't keep
things for data-recovery purposes, only for our own mistakes or troubles.

Talk to your accountant about legal liabilities for lost data, along with
cost of recovery.
Tape is cheap, recovering lost data is _VERY_ expensive.
If you don't use at least 3 generations of backup, then you have system
failure designed in from the outset and eventually it _will_ hurt you.
