As a long time user of Windows Live Mesh and its predecessors (byte taxi) and now Cubby I see a few things that Bittorrent sync could add to make me a STRONG supporter. I am a professional photographer and use syncing to keep LARGE image libraries and editied images in sync with my business partner 60 miles away. MUST LIST (live mesh had the first 2 of these but Cubby does not and it is killing me) Allow files and folders to be renamed on one computer and have them renamed on the other computers without resending the files Recognize when 2 identical files (identical file name and contents) exist on both side of a sync and not re-transfer them. Files might already be present when the sync relationship is started or a file may be added while the machines are syncing and recognize in real time that the file now does not need to be transferred. transfer only the changed parts of files (not sure if this already exists) give preference to transferring files to other computers on a higher speed (usually LAN) network before transferring over a slower WAN WANT LIST I would like to have some manual control over the sync so I could do things like pause a sync while I have other important work to use the WAN for. Have a good real time status display to see what is transferring and to what machines is very helpful.
