Two reason:
1) In my home environment I'd like to test something else, maybe just to
look for something new and more powerful, or maybe just for curiosity. :)
2) rsync itself doesn't support multiple level of backups (as it happens
for incremental o differential backup tools) without additional
scripting. This is a feature that i'm missing quite a bit.

That's it.

When I was on Mac OS X, several years ago, I used to use CCC (carbon
copy cloner) which I liked a lot, and never found any similar on PC
(Win/Linux).
