I’ve been a little unsatisfied with the level of service that .Mac has been supplying lately. The real blocker has been the syncing component. I love it. I basically bought Yojimbo because of its support for it. MySync aimed to fake the service, allowing you to sync your Macs without subscribing.
I’ve never really played with it because I am an active .Mac member, but it’s always been in the back of my mind as part of a backup plan, should I decide to drop .Mac. Today, it was announced that Mark/Space acquired MySync. Mark/Space, known for their Missing Sync line of products, already has a good amount of experience when it comes to Sync Services. I expect we’ll see a very mature product with full support relatively soon. Hopefully that threat will be enough to force Apple to pick up the slack.
