Dropbox and Google Drive Support for Sync from URL

We are excited to announce that our "Sync from URL" feature now supports Dropbox and Google Drive links, in addition to previously supported YouTube links! (Note: you also can upload subtitle files with Dropbox or Google Drive links in Translate & Dub tasks.)
