For sticking with Transmit for so long.
In my defense, it was a hold over from OS9, and after 6 years of dealing with it, I thought mirrors were supposed to be botched, large uploads were supposed to make the ftp program flip out, and cool feature were supposed not really work. It brainwashed me.
But, about a month ago, after I've had my 350th large upload spontaneously fail during the final 50k, and I wondered if there was a better way.
After two days of using Captain FTP I really wanted someone to slap me for not switching years ago.
Large mirrors are no longer a headache and crap shoot, big uploads are a guarantee, FTP to FTP transfers are an automatic, time sensitive updates are performed while I'm at a Mets game, I can always go directly where I need as several paths are stored under the same bookmark. I've only been through 50% of it's features (apparently it can also be used as a p2p, something I have yet to even look at) and already it may be the best $25 I've spent (yes, it's even cheaper than Transmit)
I urge all Transmit users to at least give it a demo, spend 10 minutes getting used to it's somewhat esoteric layout, and I guarantee you'll be driving that little truck directly into the trash.
