For me it doesn't cut the mustard these days.

For example, consider the scenario where I'm backing up 250MB of stuff
from my personal website.  I literally log on with SmartFTP, drag and
drop the root folder of my website to a folder on my PC, and it starts
20 downloading threads simultaneously, and then shuts down my PC when
the transfer queue is empty.

Can't do that with command line FTP. ;-)

And it's free for that sort of personal use.

Call me a luddite and sprinkle me with dust (as Blackadder might say)
but I have always got by with the command line FTP, its on even all
Windows PC's built in and works just fine.  Go to a command prompt and
type ftp and then at the ftp> prompt type help and you are away with all
you need...
