I assume everyone here signs up, since that is a requirement keeping the link between the current account going forward as per the description. Would make no sense not to imo.

I think I signed up.  I really don't know.  I just went to BandLab and created an account using the same email address as I have been using for my Cakewalk Sonar account.  Seems like there is nothing on Bandlab that appeals to me.  Hopefully I've done the right thing to get my account to receive my info from Cakewalk when they do the data transfer.

Sounds similar to me. Thing is, I don't like Sound Cloud. I haven't had the time to check out Band Lab just yet, but I get the impression it is kind of a "FACEBOOK" for musicians, and if that's the case then I will not like it at all. 
 
I wonder if you have the option to use it as a host for others to listen to your music with defined permissions, meaning your music link can't be shared unless you allow it, or downloaded. 
 
I like the idea of an easy way to collaborate on songs with Band Lab, but I don't like the idea that your idea's become everyone else's IF I UNDERSTAND IT RIGHT PER THEIR TERMS, Which I have not agree'd with because I uploaded NOTHING, So I presume that if you do upload it is PART OF THEIR CLOUD meaning  goodbye SONG IDEA/SONG for any leech who is looking for an idea.
 
I just signed in for an account because I felt as though I had NO CHOICE if I want to be able to activate my Sonar Platinum in the future.

Yes, I did.

Of course I did. Why would anyone who has this opportunity to get a new and current version of what we all thought was forever gone let it go to waste? BandLab and in particular Meng have handled this in a very fair and impressive manner. 

I'd be a fool not to. 

I signed up. loaded up some songs, and signed up for the tip jar option, where people can leave me tips....

So - I never got an email from BandLab telling me to connect the accounts together. So I went there and signed up for myself using the same email I have here.  The user Name Blades was already taken, so I had to go with Blades85 - though it's only the profile name (as in /blades85 in the URL).  I changed my Name from my real-world name over to Blades.  I'm sure I'm a conflict in some way now.
 
That said, I've done online collaboration before, so I went in with certain expectations.  They were not met. 
 
In the past, online collab meant that someone would create a song that needed some parts.  They would then add a request for auditions for those parts and members would add their bits and then the owner of the song would pick one and the process would move along until the arrangement was done and all the parts were in and someone would mix it.
 
What I saw on BandLab just poking around was a list of songs that people uploaded with no real search for "artists looking for drummers" or whatever. Just a scrolling list a la Facebook Newsfeed.  Unfortunately, I also found a LOT of it was absolute garbage - i.e. a few loops and some guy talking over the top as if he dreamed to be a rapper and never got the Rhythm part of it is a requirement nor that you have to actually have some words. ...SMH...
 
Anyway - I'd actually like to get back into Online Collaboration, but based on what I saw last night, BandLab might not be the way that I'll be doing that.  It unfortunately doesn't really give me a ton of confidence in the "takeover" of the IP either, since there is no real sense of community I can see over there, no standardization of tools and methods short of their little "apps", and definitely no "match.com" kind of interface to get people to click together and make parts for each other.
 
Was hopeful - now need to be told how to get what I want there or it pushes me even more back towards Studio One as the software since it feels like BandLab has a cool video to get you in and tells you how great it's going to be, and then leaves you swinging in the breeze for how to connect on their platform. 
 
No organization that I can see.  At all.
 
I'm open to being corrected!

I did.

Yes

Stick with Studio One if you like it, better to use what you feel comfortable with than joing BandLab if you dont like it. Just my 2 cents.
Personally I only got the account to be able to have my info ported over. No interest in the online colaboration thing for me anyway, so that site with its features etc is a non issue to me for the moment. 
Sonar is running fine on my PC as always and as long as that is the case I dont care about anything else really.
