I use Studio One occasionally for audio-only projects; its MIDI implementation is a very poor second to Sonar's in my opinion, for example if you use outboard synths and drum machines - there is no instrument definitions facility for example, enabling you to select patched from inside the software. I find it slick and fun to use for audio only projects though.
Stability is a difficult one. That can depend very much on other aspects of each user's setup. In my case, thinking about the last few months, I've had more inexplicable crashes with Sonar than Studio One, in fact I can't really remember when I last had one with S1.
