I want a "Cakewalk Cloud Drive" - it would be built into Cakewalk products.
 
It would not be a plug-in from some other provider that would soon be taken away because contract negotiations failed, or technical specifications changed.  And it would not be annoying, tiresome or irritating to use because it was an awkward, non-Cakewalk plug-in.
 
Example - I open Sonar Platinum from my desktop at home.  I do some work, I decide to save it - and it saves to my local hard drive and to Cakewalk Cloud both.
 
The next day, I am on on location with my laptop.  I open Sonar and browse my saved files - Cakewalk Cloud knows all the work I have done, where ever I did it, where ever I saved it.  I easily find yesterday's file, load it, and continue from where I left off.  I save when it's time for lunch, get a sandwich and head back home.  On my home machine again, I just open Sonar and load my file from Cakewalk Cloud, and continue working on the piece for the rest of the afternoon.
 
The truly important concept here is that IT WOULD BE EASY - - so easy, in fact, that you would not even need to concern yourself about whether your Sonar files were in the cloud, or on your local drive, etc.  In fact, they would be saved in both places, as long as you had an internet connection.  And, they would be invisibly updated on all your Cakewalk devices - laptop, desktop, home, work.
 
And, most important of all, it would be a Cakewalk product that loyal Cakewalk users knew was not going to disappear a few months down the road, because of changes made by some outside company.
 
I want it, and I want it now!      :^1 

I wouldn't use it, even if it were free.
 
Uploads would take too long.
 
I just save things on a fast Flash Drive and carry it with me if I want portability.
 
And that's not even starting to address security issues.
 
I think a lot of audio folk don't even use internet connections.

Got it, Arachnaut -
 
My usage would seem to be different than yours.  Almost all of my work is midi - file size and load time isn't a problem.  I rarely save audio.  
 
I can't really speak to cloud security, and to whether cloud security would be better than the security on a USB stick.
 
I have had more than 8 USB sticks go bad over the years - I find them unreliable in the long-term, if you use them frequently over a long term.  I think they are susceptible to static shocks, premature ejection (i.e., you pull them from the computer before all the buffers have been flushed) which renders them unreadable, and they can be easily lost (and found by others!) and have other problems, such as virus transmission.
 
To each their own, and there is nothing wrong with that.  
 
I still want to have a Cakewalk Cloud Drive!  I am pretty sure Cakewalk will be providing one soon (or not!).

Dropbox is very simple to use.

I take your point on this Steve, but I think most of us have cloud storage of some form. For example I have 1tb with onedrive due to having an office subscription, also have a mini server which I can access from anywhere.

Hi there:)
 
I do this over OneDrive. I have Studio and my apartement in the same house just stairs up or down. Everytime I worked on a file I do a Backup from it to another harddisc and additionally to OneDrive. Now at the other place to work on I do a Backup again and load the last files from OneDrive, so I have always 2 different Backups and the newest on OneDrive.
For I have bought Office 365 now with 1 TB Space it's not a problem anymore....

same here.
 
for simple types of data exchange dropbox is OK (like sharing mix stems as MP3) ...
 
for real work people need to meet in the studio anyway.

What happens when you try to open a project from a different comp that doesn't have the same plugins installed that you used in your project?

As for cloud vs USB.  Getting a virus by connecting to the internet is far more problematic than just buying and using a quality USB stick.

Easiest (obviously) is to make sure you have all plugins on both systems. But if you don't, you get a notice that some plugin is missing. Sonar keeps a "place holder" in its slot and all settings are retained for when the plugin is found or you go work on your other system again, but obviously you can't use it or change any settings (except delete the plugin completely).
