A gentle reminder, with new information. My programs of choice for music creation and production are BIAB and Propellerhead Reason, now at version 7.1. Reason has evolved to become an even more awesome soft synth and effects suite AND a complete DAW. Unfortunately, Reason doesn't support drag and drop. Because if this and other factors, using the two apps together is extremely labor intensive, and frankly discouraging when approaching major projects. In my case, Rewire would free me from the 32-bit limitation experienced by users of high-end VSTi's, as Reason would take their place in its 64-bit environment and not require BIAB to need more resources than it presently uses.

I'm aware that this capability is probably unique to me among BIAB users and not in itself a compelling reason to add Rewire. But what an incredible thing it would be to have the two apps able to work together in this way, in addition to everything that others have articulated.

Bottom line for me is that, as things stand, I may only be good for one more BIAB update. (I currently have 2014.) Barring some unforeseen need for another new feature, Rewire is probably the only thing that would make me take that step.
