I think if they offered their product with some kind of backup to a cloud target it would be a little better. But I agree it is worth a shot for backup targets, etc.

I found it interesting that they were not trying to be a Cloud Backup solution. hell they are not even trying to be a backup solution. They are simply making a use for unused space.
There is a plethora of choice when it comes to cloud data storage. I think this may be a smarter move to skip it. Maybe a partnership for a sync to offsite kinda thing would work for them.

I could see them partnering with Box or Dropbox as a beneficial partnership.

I think they would be better served with real cloud backup, not a sync solution.

Why do you say that?

Why are you going to the cloud with this solution if not for a backup?
I can't remember who, but someone here in ML thinks of ODfB as a 'backup.' But Scott definitely put it more accurately - they are a sync solution that backs up, but they are not a backup.
In the same token, For what you would use this technology for, you probably need a real backup more than a sync solution.

I think that you can use any existing backup mechanism with it.

How are you picturing the two working together?

Definitely the more important association needed. I can't even think of how this would usefully work with a sync solution.

What is your goal? I think we are struggling to picture the use case that you are picturing. If you have cloud storage, how are you using Aetherstore? And vice versa?
