Draft feature set:
- Local daemon running that manages this process, on PC or Mac. It can't be done solely from the browser.
- The software manages the import from the SD/CF cards, you put them all in, it sorts everything out and wipes the SD cards on the way out.
- You then use Lightroom to do whatever you're going to do. The software would do well to have a Lightroom plugin that lets you select particular images to mark as "high priority" and "low priority."
- Now the daemon uploads all of your RAWs, Lightroom metadata, and corrected JPGs to cloud storage.
- Based on your settings, these RAWs get discarded after some set amount of time (maybe immediately, maybe never), and the highest-quality JPGs are also discarded after a longer amount of time for lower-quality JPGs just in case you need a emergency backup. After 6 months you lose the raws, 1 year the highest quality JPG, 2 years the medium quality JPG, etc. You are charged per gigabyte per month so you can decide how much you care about backup. Basically offload the cognitive effort of discarding old data that isn't worth its upkeep costs anymore.
- The files are available via an API that you can use to build your own gallery/shopping cart site, with the ability to call a certain quality, PROOF watermarking, etc. on-the-fly. But the service offers a default site right there for you to do the same, that's stylable and can be implemented on your own domain.
- You can get your entire catalog shipped to you on a hard drive at any time for a few hundred dollars.
