For me Cubase = music; Pro Tools HD = audio post. Cubase is much better for VIs and midi generally. PT is the only game in town for audio post houses in general.

Both programs have their strengths and weaknesses. Audio editing and stuff like track importing is better with PT. I prefer Steinberg as a company, they don't ruthlessly bleed you dry as Avid love to do. But Steinberg's development - and especially fixing bugs - has been pretty pretty lamentable in the past few years (much like Avid really).

IMO both programs are way off what a DAW should be in 2017.
