Who cares about security when you're putting music up on an ftp site for the
whole world to access? I made it easy for folks and don't care about
security or encryption in that context.

For a customer, Delta Dental Plan of NC, we set up https back in 2001 since
encryption was necessary for the medical records with the HIPPA
requirements.

Use what works best for you. Everyone has different needs.

Jim
