How much is Exchange Online Extra Storage compared to getting more licenses?

With the recent price changes for the BPOS Suite of services, it makes sense for businesses to purchase additional Exchange Online subscriptions vs. additional storage. Since Exchange Online Extra Storage can be purchased at $2.50 per GB, per month, it makes sense that companies seeking more tha 2 GB in extra storage per month as a whole are better off simply purchasing another Exchange Online user seat.
