What is the value of this service being integrated into Sonar?  Can't anyone simply upload files to the cloud storage platform of their choice whenever they choose?  With all the various sites providing these services - you can get 5 gigabytes or so for free from Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Apple, Dropbox, Mediafire, etc, as well as Gobbler - it seems like there's more than enough free storage out there for collaboration purposes.
 
For backup purposes, I don't understand why these services are more reliable than a couple of redundant backup hard drives, and it's so convenient to attach a hard drive through USB3 or eSata for transfer rates of what, 60 megabytes per second?  Maybe higher?
 
Also, why is it good to have Sonar manage your backups, etc, rather than directly accessing the tools yourself?
 
Thanks for your comments.

Well, it seems like it's backing up to Gobbler as you work on the projects, it's project specific and happens from within Sonar and is available in both my locations instantly. As far as I can tell, there's no need to back up your entire heap of projects, only the ones you want available in more than one location. I quite like the idea. I'm tired of lugging harddrives around in the rain and cold weather that we have here, and then worry about them on the pub on my way home after the sessions. Plus, it may actually be cheaper than buying new harddrives all the time. I'm usually doing tracking in one location and everything else in another, having everything available in both places - plus available from the gobbler site when I'm out and about - would be extremely convenient for me. And the transfer protocol seems like it could be useful! I could probably do without Digidelivery.
 
I've tried to make it work with Box, Dropbox (which I use for other things), Cloud Drive, SkyDrive (ugh) +++ and some paid-for services but most of them turn out to be quite unreliable. Box won't take files if they are too big, SkyDrive don't always upload or download everything. Suddenly you're stuck somewhere missing a file or two. Besides, my projects usually get really big, sometimes with video and such, so to use a cloud based storage service to transfer and store my projects, I need to purchase storage space, so why not do that with a service that integrates in Sonar and then I can leave my Dropbox, Skydrive and all that for personal stuff.
 
The voucher is still not in my account. I guess it will come eventually. If not I might just purchase the service. On my way to the studio today I picked up a new harddrive since my old one is dying on me. I could have saved the 800,-NOK and spent them at the pub

It seems to me that backing up music production online is still way too slow/expensive to make it worthwhile.  It'd rather pay $150, get a 3TB drive, and manually backup at the EOD.  In fact, I do.  I have multiple drives.  It's quick, I don't need to run any apps.  And it's $150 that will last quite a while, rather than a subscription.
 
I have a paid account on Dropbox that I use to send clients files.  That works fine.  I have enough space to put up full-quality 44.1k WAV files for a CD or whatever if needed.  Good enough.  But the upload speed of anything more than an MP3 isn't good enough as of yet.  Just my experience!

+1 on that one.

I am looking forwards to when my pitiful upload speed here in the countryside of the UK will allow me to use my NAS box to its full potential and share files and projects with clients that way....My own Webserver.

btw, voucher isnt in my account either.
 

Ah, that would make a huge difference, I have a pretty good internet connection here in the middle of Oslo. Uploads and downloads are quite quick.
 
But there's a difference here; copying a couple of gigabytes onto a cloud service takes time. What intrigues me about Gobbler is that it updates the changes as you make them. After a project is synced to the cloud, updates to the project files and snippets of audio you record will be uploaded more or less instantanious. To me, that beats any external harddrive management

 Word! Incremental backup on the fly is a good feature!!.
