Get on the bandwagon

Here’s an interesting new service: Bandwagon, “an online iTunes backup service for Mac users”. Bandwagon offers unlimited storage for iTunes backups for only $69 US per year. That’s right, install their app and it will manage automatic, unmonitored backups of your entire iTunes library for less than $10 CDN per month.

Too good to be true? Martin and I put on our tinfoil hats to come up with some theories behind Bandwagon’s offering.

  • Bandwagon is sharing your music with all their friends
  • Bandwagon is a front for the RIAA. (’Got IP?)
  • Bandwagon is financed by AllofMP3 as a cheap source of new files

Got any ideas? Leave a comment.

Kidding aside, I’m definitely going to give this a try and report back.
