True, the price might be too much for some users. But keep in mind that .Mac is a yearly subscription...this is an app with a one-time fee.

There are other target markets: people unwilling to put their data on Apple's servers, people behind a relatively restrictive firewall, people unwilling to put up with .Mac sync's regular failure to actually work, etc.

Yes .mac is a subscription, but think about it... next year there will be a new OS X out, and you will probably need to pay for SyncTogether again as an upgrade.... When it's pay for an upgrade or stop using it, that's de facto subscription itself.

Then you have to figure the added hassle inherent in the assumption that this will inevitably not work as well as Apple's own software, (esp. reading the reviews).

Too rich for my blood. What a shame the original developer sold it -- he seemed eager to make things work well.
