Alternative to Crashplan?

I've been using Crashplan to backup the data I have stored on my NAS (photos, home movies, documents) for 3.5 years now and I've no issues with it. As I have less than 6 months remaining I find myself considering my options.

When I signed up I got a discount, but there's nothing offered for existing subscribers.

I wondered if there were any similar alternatives that did new customers discounts, etc, that may be cheaper than Crashplan's fees. If I renew Crashplan, it'd probably be their 4 year plan again.

I have approx. 1.5TB of data stored. So sticking with CP will have it's obvious advantages.

I've just got my Synology NAS set up to run CP, so an alternative that will install on my NAS would be desirable.
 
If you change provider you'll lose all that backup history and I suspect it'll take quite a while to reupload everything! I know it's annoying that new users get better deals than existing ones but if you're happy why change?
 
That's my current thinking on the matter. I just wanted to check I wasn't jumping the gun and missing out on a deal somewhere. :)
