I dont use it 'all' the time, but when Im doing a lot of audio editing and mixing and needing to reference clips from the media pool, its very very helpful to be able to hover scrub so I can tell what sound it is that Im working with, rather than double-click it to open it up, then grab my mouse and move it to the clip viewer and then drag my scrub bar to the beginning of the clip and then play it and wait until it gets to the part of the clip that has audio -- all to realize, oh, that's not the clip I want at all! Then rinse, repeat and repeat and repeat until I find the clip Im looking for. WIth hover scrub, I can scan through 5 clips to determine if its the one I want or not in literally about 5 seconds. Definitely a must have feature, even if its only activated as needed.
