nice idea. Few things to note:

Its MAC only right now. Although they do say that they will have a windows version soon.
And this can become a massive trap. I dont really get what is so different to this than me, zipping up my work and storing it on a cloud based system, which is free. One year is a massive time for us to accumulate stuff. So do be careful. Cos after which, they might charge a bomb to keep in sync.
Why do I need to download anything is something I dont understand. Web based cannot be done ?

Yea good points. They might charge a lot to keep the service for you.


I think the main difference between normal cloud backup services is the ability to not have to zip it up and re-download. I've had a few experiences where the audio files in a Project Folder become out of sync on ProTools after moving from one hard drive to another so I believe Gobbler is saying they will keep it all sync'd for you.
