There is one more consideration. At home I have a modest internet connection. If I need to download a serious file. I have time to go make coffee. I converted several sound samples from WAV to MP3 so *I* could download them.

I've never lost a project. I haven't either, mostly because I've never used one. Unlike capturing vinyl, my stuff is non-recoverable. IMHO, Projects are not a good habit to get into. In today's forum postings, there is a producer who flushed an AUP Project Manager file by accident. I give it about ...
