"Free [y] with the purchase of [x]." Is a common marketing tactic. Like the "Free twitch prime subscription with the purchase of an amazon prime subscription" deal. Obviously you're paying for both at a reduced rate, but "free" attracts people a lot more than any other discount.

I believe that the irony of "free backups" was specifically intended by the author.

"free" cloud backups? not free if you had to buy something, such as that subscription.
kinda like saying you got a magazine free with your Nintendo Power subscription.
just a curious thought, still a great depiction.
