Gobbler as a cloud backup service

Hi all,

I've just recently come across an offsite / cloud backup solution called Gobbler. Basically, anyone can create a free account that comes with 25gb of storage space. The bundled application scans your local and removable drives for project files (Logic, Pro Tools, Studio One, etc.), lists them all and then asks which ones you want to backup. The assets are stored offsite (which the website assures is "military-grade" in terms of security) and you can send the assets over to another Gobbler user to keep the projects synced.

There's all these other features like SoundCloud integration and geographical drive tagging as well. The premise of the service seems perfect for what we all do.

Here's the official homepage for Gobbler

But I'm curious; I've hardly ever heard of this service before. No audio professionals I've spoken to have acknowledged it's existence and a quick search of this site doesn't seem to point to any references of it even though it's been in a public BETA phase for over 8 months now.

I just wanted to check whether anyone here had come into contact with the service (I was invited by a colleague myself) or if anyone had any thoughts or comments at all.
