I really dislike SuperDuper's practice of rewriting my cron table
entries with tab delimiters when you use it for scheduled backups. So I
stopped using it for regular backups.

Time Machine lets me recover individual files on an ad hock basis, or do
entire system restores if needed. And since I can tell Time Machine to
backup to multiple destinations (I think that is a recently-added
feature - perhaps in 10.7 or 10.8), and I have Time Machine backup
everything to sparse disk image bundles, I don't feel as much of a need
to use a second utility.
