I've been for a long time "dreaming"/thinking of a business model for
Ardour/Qtractor/<FLOSS-App> which would be an integrated service to upload
final mixes and even entire projects to the cloud.
Gobbler is an example of that (along with project distributed sync), and
other DAWs have integrated Soundcloud or Dropbox, just as an example.
An integration with Bandcamp would be great as it can be a source of
incoming for both the uploader and the DAW project.
That would be really useful at least to learn, and many times on lectures
and other situations I wish I had a well formated and big project in order
to let the audience astonished.
