its arguably quicker to download via ftp than it is via http (through your browser by clicking on a link) but its not that much quicker where you're going to really miss it. Its more convenient in terms of being able to upload files to a server (since you can always download through your browser)

Re: FTP Program

the ftp speed is like downloading anything, it's dependant on the your broadband speed and of where you are getting the file from.. the stuff I grab from 365mag ftp downloads a lot faster than stuff I download from some "other places"

Re: FTP Program

...And it's free?? Sorry to ask a shit load of questions, just trying to weigh up some options..

Re: FTP Program

there are a lot of ftp programmes that are free yeah.. first one I ever used was cuteFTP, not sure if that one is free any more.. they are really easy to use, I'm surprised you've never used an ftp client before

options as far as what?

if you've never needed a FTP program until today, probably won't have any reason to use it either. it's not a soulseek or bittorrent type thing, but is only used for uploading/downloading to servers that you have access to. if you don't have an account on an FTP server somewhere, or know of any places that offer music via FTP (I don't) then you probably aren't going to get from this what you're thinking

Re: FTP Program

I have friends that have music pools on ftp's....Just wasn't sure if it would be worth it to join..

Re: FTP Program

Remember the days where the whole action went on in closed groups using private FTP's built like the Fight club (there is no FTP) before the nerds took over with their 0 day releases of everything via Rapidshare and Co?
